If you are already tired of the two candidates running for president you now know what your
third option can be. Jill Stein recently received the nod from the Green Party to challenge President Obama and Mr. Romney (in states where the Green Party is on the ballot). Here on informuscitizens.com we often discuss immigration issues as they relate to the Democratic and Republican parties. Giving a little attention to a third alternative may be helpful. According to the Green Party platform regarding immigration, “The Green Party stands
firmly for social justice for all those living in order viagra this country regardless of their immigration status. Above all, policy and law must be humane, anything less would be inconsistent with our Green Values, and with our nation’s values.” Furthermore, they declare, “The U.S. needs a complete overhaul of its immigration laws. Our current situation has created extreme social injustice. Millions of people are living and working in the U.S. with no legal status, making them subject to extreme exploitation and abuse. Immigration raids are terrorizing the immigrant community. Families are being broken up. Employer abuses of undocumented workers are rampant.”
If this sounds like something that interests you or that you may want to support check out their platform in full at: http://www.gp.org/committees/platform/2010/social-justice.php#1002510 and scroll down to the immigration section.

This is good stuff. So often we get wrapped up in what the two major parties think on the issues and don’t stop to look and see what someone else might be offering.
While the Green and other “third parties” stand no real chance of winning anything in the coming elections, throwing your support behind one can certainly help one feel better about themselves if unhappy with the Republicans and Democrats.
