At this rate, I'll be surprised if either candidate can maintain a green platform into November, or into their administration.

I share your fears. Hownahell are we to get something to change in our habits if our leaders refuse to lead? Or we refuse to select someone who will lead? A collapse will be catastrophic, painful, and devastating. And we don't care as long as we can drive our SUV's, sit in our 68 degree AC'd homes, and eat until we are fat.
Sorry, I tend to rant when this sort of thing gets brought up.
