I picked the "Green Party."

The Green Party is a democracy. The people involved in this party want to increase public participation in the government, and ensure that our representative are accountable to the people who elect them. This party wants to confront issues like racism, sexism, homophobia, and rights for people with disabilities. The Green Party wants people to realize that they are working with the nature, and want to maintain an ecological balance and not use too many natural resources. They are also against violence and want to eliminate weapons including WMD's. This party also wants to fix income inequality and power inequality. Another thing this party wants to fix is gender inequality. They want females to get the same treatment and pay as males do. They also want to increase respect for diversity. One more thing this party wants to accomplish is setting long term goals to help the earth be more healthy. The President of the Green Party right now is Jill Stein.

My thoughts on the Green Party is that they have some things that I agree with, but other things I don't including getting rid of our WMD's. We need our WMD's for self defense. One thing that I agree with, though, is that they want more income equality. We have been talking about income equality and I think it needs to be fixed. I also agree with trying to make the earth more healthy by reducing pollution.
