Well...if I may be allowed to express a personal opinion, "part of the problem" is that our "choir" is vastly long on vision, inspiration, and freshness, but somewhat short on PURPOSEFUL action. Yes, emphasis on purposeful; which means making clear what our purpose is. Stay small, supportive and uncritical? We are doing a gret job right now. Becoming a party recognizable by the average person on the street (i.e., "the masses")? For that maybe we could infiltrate some Green meetings and find out what we should be doing.
