The only thing is, we’ve had presidents who weren’t racists (that’s not the case currently, but that’s another story. We have a large population who’s racist, and they voted him in).
But so far nobody Green has ever won here.

@bijouxbroussard ok but im talking about the UK. I’m not American

@Waveney Yes, I understood that, even though you didn’t mention it in your initial post. Brits often ask why we focus on two parties here, when there are others, like the Green party here, too.

@bijouxbroussard I think Greens have won on a local level here in the US, MAYBE on a state level?
bijouxbroussard · F
@ChipmunkErnie Yes, but never in the Senate or Congress. I understand they have won seats in the UK Parliament.

@bijouxbroussard Your greens sadly are a joke.
Their only purpose is to show up once every 4 year and fragment the blue base so that the GOP wins against a smaller denominator.

@Elessar That’s been the effect of most third party candidates here because even though they have a smaller base, the registered GOP always vote, and rarely for anyone other than their candidate. The one time a third party candidate might have split the GOP was when Ross Perot ran, in the 90s
