      national elections are a very expensive form of advertisin

      You pay for them by building organization and party cadre far more than you do by spending money. You’re not “advertising”, you’re speaking to people face to face - the essential work of mass politics.

        idk you could do the same effort tabling or going door to door for local elections and get more and higher quality interest than a presidential candidate in places where you have no state or local examples.

        all the yelling to liberals about voting PSL or Green in “safe” blue states didn’t amount to much and if people aren’t interested in electoral efforts at all you’re not going to pick us up by running for president.

          Oh, you say this from all your experience?

          Your assumption is wrong. You do not get the same results. We’ve done it. We still do it. It is not at, at all, the same results.
