Tips for Alternattiva's new chairman

I've always found Alternativa Demokratika to have the best of intentions at heart; it's just that they really don't know how to sell themselves. What they lack is an eye for those details that make all the difference.

I would like to take this opportunity to suggest to Michael Briguglio to first and foremost change the name of the party. The very concept of calling your party "a Democratic Alternative" sounds rather vague and impotent to begin with. A name like that already suggests a democratic minority that's not fit enough to contend with the big boys. Mind you, I am only referring to the name here.

Secondly, I suggest Mr Briguglio changes the party's colour. Apart from green being the most unlucky colour in the entire spectrum, these days everyone tries to somewhat sell themselves off as green, trying to have us believe just how much they care oh so much for the environment, regardless of the fact that AD might be the most genuine about this, if nothing else.

Now, last but not least, I strongly suggest AD change that most mediocre logo of theirs; its design, at best, advertises a packet of Sunshine snacks, and not a party that expects to be taken seriously.
