Political content

I voted for Kerry for President, but this year I also registered as a member of the Green Party. They recently published a funny ad in the New York Times that pretty much sums up why I joined (although the first five issues they list are of much greater concern to me than the last two). The ad is on the home page of their web site right now, but I don't know how long it will be there.

I know some people say that there will never be viable alternative political parties in the US. They're probably right, but I just can't bring myself to act accordingly.

Yes, the German Greens are part of the same Global Green network as the US and Canadian parties and most of the European ones. You can follow the "International Links" on the US website for a complete list of the network members who attended the last global conference in 2001.

I quite often vote Green in local and European elections here in the UK.
