6. Remember the New Deal
started with the Progresisve Party in the Texas Prairie in the 1870s, sometimes you need threats and even third parties to wake them up. If we lived in a nation of proportional representation... third partise wouldl be more than viable. We don't, so until then, third parties have an important role and IF ENOUGH Americans have had enough, the same thing that happened in the 1870s will happen again... and I can guarantee one of the two parties will pay attention. I am inclined to believe it will be the Dems.

And again, insofar as Dianne Feinstein is concerned I cannot in good conscience vote for her... it is either not vote, and stay home, or vote green in november. Now if the Dems run somebody against her in the primaries, that candidate will get my shoe leather and my funds, as limited as they are.
