Considering it comes from a high % of young people, a demographic that traditionally doesn't even vote, it's in fact quite high, using your logic.

Besides, you have to put it in context:
How many people vote for someone else besides Republicans or Democrats not because of what they agree with, but just because it is different?

So? How many people vote simply along Party lines? How many people vote for a Democrat, simply because they don't like the Republican, and vice versa??

How many people truly know what the Green party is about? It is just like any one other of those one agenda parties, like the Leaglize Marijuana party, the Pro-Life Party, etc?

No, it's not, but you do raise a valid point. The fact that it calls itself "Green" hinders it at times. It more so resembles a European labor party, more than a weed party. Granted, decriminalization is an issue, but it's only one of several.
