Ugh. I don't know. I mean, I feel like Andrew made a good effort, though one always wonders if these new middle grounds can get the kind of funding needed to run a successful campaign... I'm not a huge fan of the idea of 'revolution' — it seems as though 'tearing things down' tends to make things worse/not resolve the problem. In Canada, for example, I see more hope in a sort of 'liberal' Conservative Party, seeing as the Conservatives in Canada are already not very right wing. In the US, the abortion divide between left and right seems massive, which is troubling. I'm hoping we can support some good middle-ish candidates and create something decent, though I suspect those types would have to be on the Republican side, as clearly the Tulsi's can't get anywhere with the Democrats. I am not an expert on American politics, of course, so I'm sure there are people better equipped to discuss those kinds of specifics than I.
