          The Green Party may be a serious enterprise in other countries, but in the United States it mostly just serves as a punchline.

          I could see if we were to put ranked choice in everywhere, then start trying to mount things like the Green Party.

          But instead we have a goofy candidate show up on the presidential ballot every 4 years, some with strange foreign ties and Republicans funding them. Almost zero candidates at the local level.

          And we can thank them for things like W and donnie.
