This makes no sense. Do you burn down your house before you have built a new one?
There is no other party to turn to at the moment. The Greens are a pack of white boogies with pretensions to social consciousness. Ever go to a Brooklyn Greens meeting? It is as white as a Klan rally.
Build the party and people may come. But the Green Party at the moment is way too pale to be green, never mind black.
