    Recently watched Channel5 interviews at the Poor People’s Army rally at the DNC and listened to Stein talk for like 10minutes. She’s not wrong with anything she says, but she is entirely and completely innefectual at fomenting any momentum to effect the change she speaks about. So up to this point all they have achieved is to become the butt of everyone’s jokes.

    The Green party does support ranked choice voting, but it’s seemingly down the list of their concerns when it should be #1, with a bullet. They will never, ever, achieve anything except the odd headline until we move on from first past the post.

      Her number one issue currently is stopping an ongoing Genocide.

      Another huge issue is repealing Citizend United and getting the bribes out of politics.

      Besides that there’s raising minimum wage, healthcare and basically everything else people are demanding from Democrats but they refuse to do.

      Prioritizing is getting tough these days.

        Her number one issue currently is stopping an ongoing Genocide.

        What tangible steps has she taken to do so? If she’s unable to take any because she doesn’t hold an elected position, and she truly believes Democrats won’t do anything, then her top priority to stopping the genocide should be winning any elected position. Her utter mismanagement of the Green party suggests that is nowhere near her goal.

          Exactly. She has been the head of the Green Party’s for Y E A R S and they are still nowhere nearer winning offices than they were when she took over. It’s all great and well to talk about change, but when your the head of ostentibly the only viable third party and continuously fail to achieve anything, step the fuck aside and find someone who can.

          Again, I don’t disagree with almost anything Stein advocates for. I just think she enjoys the smell of her own farts to an excessive degree.

            So let’s post angry comments about it when she’s about to win votes! That will show her!

            “I agree with her but she shouldn’t run against Fascist liberals!” ?

          What mismanagement are you talking about? You’re talking as if she’s not campaigning.

            Can you answer that person’s question? What tangible steps has Jill Stein taken to stop an ongoing genocide?

              She has demonstrated against israel, has an anti-colonialist VP and promised a full arms embargo against israel.

              Pledge to Stop Genocide

              It’s insane people who support Holocaust Harris are asking about “tangible steps” to stop an ongoing Genocide to begin with.

                    So you believe Jill Stein, who has no chance of winning, but think it’s absurd to believe Harris, who has a significant chance of winning? Honestly you crack me up but you’re kind of annoying at this point.
