.....and I don't mean a fiesta on the golf course.:lick:
The large parties, PRD/PLD/PRSC, are saturated with corrupt cliques and don't seem to have any coherent plans for dealing with the nation's problems. It would seem that the few politicians within their ranks that are honest and have the will to do things right, are quickly isolated from the leadership and only the "team-players" are allowed to surface to positions of power in the party or in government.
I don't recall a Green party being there in my youth, thus I'm wondering if there is now a progressive, still unpolluted -pun intended- political organization akin to other Green Party movements around the world.
I'd suspect that even if not viable to obtain, say the Presidency, perhaps such a eco-centric movement could elect a candidate to the legislature or perhaps to local goverments.
Would it be any better to put these issues on the table from within the politcal party system, instead of as outside NGOs and other advocacy groups?
Thanks for any responses,
