Citizen Kate discovers a world party and realizes that "being green" is about more than the bling.
I attended The Green Party National Convention in Chicago, Illinois. I was super excited to show off my new green outfit. It's so much easier to dress when there's a theme.
I quickly realized that the Green Party really doesn't care about appearances. They are focused on the truth and social justice and the environment. My dress did dazzle, but what was most impressive were the people that I met there. They were so welcoming to me. I felt loved and love for the world.
They even picked a woman for president, Cynthia McKinney, who then picked another woman for Vice President, Rosa Clemente. If only, I'd gone green sooner, maybe I could have been on the ticket.
Note to self: Not everyone in politics has money, but the Green Party sure does have a lot of love.
