So what are you waiting for? Gather your friends together and start a new political party. Don't worry about whether or not you will ultimately succeed or whether your party is big enough. Just get organized and adopt a platform that is open to compromise, and is ready for merger with some other party. If enough people do this, and then negotiate a merger with other small parties, the sum total of all these efforts merged together will be big enough to mount a serious challenge in state and federal elections.
Just remember, that the goal of doing this is not to get your opinions enshrined in laws, but to negotiate and compromise and build a party that is large enough, inclusive enough and has enough heart, that it can represent a majority of the American people. Only such a party can beat the elephant and the donkey at their old game. You need an octopus party that has many arms and which brings together many interest groups.
But most importantly, you need to do this now. Get some friends together, organize some meetings, and ask everyone why they would not join a political party that stands for compromise, inclusion, and a big heart.
