The Green Party has posted an article on it’s website, calling for President Obama to reverse Bush Administration policies on drugs, surveillance, executive power, and cuts to Social Security. Here is an excerpt:

“The Clinton Administration accomplished what the Republicans had tried to enact but failed — welfare ‘reform’, NAFTA and other antidemocratic international trade authorities, deregulation of credit markets and telecommunications giants. Will Barack Obama deliver what George W. Bush promised?” asked Budd Dickinson, co-chair of the Green Party of the United States.
Greens said that the Democratic Party’s retreats, betrayals, and capitulations on so many major issues proved the failure of the two-party status quo and the need for the Green Party’s emergence.
