This is my first time reading your work. I absolutely love the subject matter presented here. In the Jill Stein dialogue you did a great job presenting all the major problems I think our country and world are facing.
From GMO, to the Rothschild's and big banking, and big pharma lobbyist. The Donald trump responses throughout are hysterical!!

My only critique, surprisingly, actually would have been more dialogue from Trump. While qualitatively I don't believe he has anything worth while to say. He is a polarizing personality that has gained a lot of support. Presenting his views and those who support him is an important part of changing people's minds. Or at the very least highlighting what a deplorable human being he is. I can't stand either presidential candidate, and cannot in good conscience support either party. The information about the green party you presented here definitely has given me plenty to think about on a personal level. So thank you for that.

This post is ROCK SOLID! You just made a very big fan out of me!! I look forward to reading more of your work!

Well done! This writing was truthful and well digested. I felt it was full of truisms and provided full ponders for the reader.

Jill had my vote before I read this. The argumentation is laid out in a smooth and convincing way. The word "affect" might be misused here depending on the ultimate meaning of the sentence. You might check out the following link for more information: http://grammarist.com/usage/affect-effect/ . All in all, this is well written and I even got a little chuckle when DT finally said, "I get it."

I agree that a 3rd party is needed but disagree that any party that would need to use force against individuals to meet it's goals should be that party. Of the 10 points mzny would take using force against individuals in order to achieve the goal. The how and the why's are left out of the 10 point plan as well. I agree there needs to be a change, just not this one.

I'm English, and have problems with our lot, and we have three to choose from ... actually, at the moment we only have one, the other two are in shambles. Perhaps it would be an idea for the US to have a third party, your assessment of the green party sounds to me to be the ideal third party. It would certainly shake up the other two. You made some excellent points, perhaps if everyone voted for the greens, they could have some seats? Excellent piece. Sandra x

Amazing, this is the type of logic that escapes both the democratic and republican party. Truth is something that the "powers that be" has held from this country for too long. Vote green! Keep writing

This is the promotion of perfection. It truly would create the perfect world.
If only it were that easy.
Can you imagine other countries, notably China and Russia agreeing to this?
Guess this is the difference between noble theory and realistic greed.

Good work on this piece. Well, it's too bad the Green party is only at two percent in the polls. This country could really do with a strong national third party, but I think it is going to take a a grassroots movement at the local level in order to achieve this. Nicely done!

Take care,
Russell

Start the revolution.
I think that your morality is admirable, and that your idea of expressing it in a debate form is a great metaphor of how a person of real conscious examines beliefs.
I think that you need to set the scene a bit more. Perhaps we need the moderator.
I enjoyed the read, and respect the contents.
Thanks for sharing
Gene
