A great video I meant to put up here about a week ago (the time it was first available) but never got to it.

It’s co-worker Eric Odom’s firsthand experience in a recent Chicago cab ride. Check it out below. It’s hilarious. My favorite part follows (although mere text does it no justice):

“The Democratic Party…you know the party that stands for inclusion? The party that stands for diversity? The Democratic Party went to court the last two elections and knocked my party, the Green Party, off the ballot in 26 states, including my state here. So that I could not vote for the party of my choice in my own state thanks to the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party limited my right to vote. Not conservative republicans — you know what I mean? — evangelical creeps or Muslim fanatic bastards…The Democrats limited my choice of participation!”

After I watched that, I did some mindless youtube surfing and came up with the following little gem. A presidential debate featuring the Green Party candidates. Let me tell you: the pickings are god awful.

Upon receiving a question about the subsidy-ridden Farm Bill, dread-locked candidate Kat Swift turns white, giving the following “answer”(1:06-1:41):

“I’m actually not familiar with the details of the Farm Bill. Um, but I’ve heard from farmers that it doesn’t work. And so, you know, I’m guessing that the best way to do this is to get the small farmers together and hear what they have to say about fixing it and do those fixes. Because the corporate farmers are not — they’re the ones that control how the Farm Bill is made. We know that.”
