I have always been involved in issue-based politics, not party politics - I was never really originally drawn to party politics.

If we're not in the debates there will be no real discussion of climate change, because Hillary Clinton's policy does not begin to address the threat.
Jill Stein

[Hillart Clinton] holds the illusion that we can make fossil fuel safe, and that they are safe, and she established an office for fracking. We know who she's taking the money from. We know who the Democratic Party is taking the money from.

According to the National Priorities Project, military expenditures are 54% of the budget. The next biggest line item is 7%. And there are a whole bunch of 7 percents. So in short, we have a military budget surrounded by a lot of footnotes. This is not serving us well.

I became really interested in the community health care movement and community health centers, which Boston was sort of a leading center for.

[Hillary Clinton'] transition director being Ken Salazar, I think, indicates that she will continue to be a friend to fracking. It's not possible to solve the climate crisis while we continue to expand fracking.

I think, as a white person, I do not want to speak for a black person.

If you're working as secretary of state but half of your emails are about your own private business, since when is secretary of state such a leisurely job that half of your time and half of your email are spent on your own private business? There's something really wrong with that picture.
Jill Stein

I think we have a very critical role to play, within the spectrum of international law and human rights.

Moving to 100 percent renewable energy means we no longer need and can no longer justify wars for oil.

Who benefits from Wi-Fi? We all benefit from Wi-Fi. Is there an industry here? Of course, there is an industry, as well. The point is public health needs protecting. I don't think you should have to prove that there is some profiteer who might have an ulterior motive in order to protect public health.

It turns out we get so much healthier when we convert to a green energy economy that our health savings alone are enough to pay for the cost of the energy transition.

He [Donald Trump] is gotten $4 billion worth of free media. They launched his campaign. As I think the president of CBS said, you know, He may be bad for America but he sure is good for my bottom line.
