Based upon those interactions, I was impressed by the Green Party, effectively
going Green the following month. Since then, I have learned a lot about the
Green Party and its inner workings. I love how there is a high value on
internal democracy. And I love the GPCA and GPUS platforms – solid.</span></span><br style="font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;text-align:start;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;word-spacing:0px">
