Join the “Cool Earth Party” tribe

The Democrats and Republicans are the paid agents of the oil, armament, and insurance industries. Their continued rule of America will assure a future of more imperialist war, a healthcare system that doesn't work, and no meaningful action on global warming (the single biggest threat to the future of humanity and a healthy planet).

The Cool Earth Party is being established on the principles of revolutionary democratic socialism. We call for an end to the dictatorial power of the wealthy through the nationalization of major industries and for the establishment of a planned economy run to meet human and environmental needs. This socialist society must be established within the framework of full democratic freedoms and multi-party proportional democracy. To be truly Democratic all parties running in elections will be legally guaranteed equal time in the media, big campaign spending will be outlawed, and electronic voting machines (which are presently used to rig American elections) will be eliminated.

Upon taking power the Cool Earth Party will establish a system of socialized medicine for the United States, end all U.S. military occupations of other countries, end U.S. military aid to repressive governments, and nationalize the auto and energy industries to carry out immediate emergency measures to drastically reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

    Well hopefully you can get better traction than the Green Party. I think as long as the Dems and Reps hold power, you will not get laws passed that will aid a third party. That is the quandry, getting them to pass laws to allow other parties. Not going to happen. They will do everything and anything to prevent that. The other problem is what happened with the 2000 elections in that Ralph Nader managed to pull some votes but because the Green Party is closer to the Dems, he pulled much needed votes from the Democrats allowing Bush to pull his shenanigans to steal the election. Had Nader not been in there, Gore might have picked up more votes negating Florida's influence.
    So the real problem is getting enough people involved, like Perot did, to actually create a viable party that can stand on its own. All the while taking from both parties, rather than just the Dems. Otherwise, we are right back where we were in 2000, 2004, and possibly in 2008.

      I also doubt that we will easily achieve democracy in the United States. It will most likely take a revolution to achieve it, hence the work towards founding a party on the principles of revolutionary democratic socialism.
