More quotes by Jill Stein
Today, suddenly, after, what, five years, suddenly he [Donald Trump] became convinced that it's not an issue. Yesterday it was an issue. It will probably become an issue again for him. You know, the guy may have a memory problem.
Jill Stein
The climate is not tomorrow. The climate is a year off or maybe 10 years off. So we have to be really clear that we're solving the crisis of economic insecurity at the same time.
Jill Stein
I think it's very troubling to see the reality of where the American political establishment is going - into this big tent, which is one happy Demo-Republican family.
Jill Stein
We the voters demand the right to be in charge here, to be informed, to be empowered.
Jill Stein
Bernie's campaign was very principled in most regards, I think, you know, he certainly didn't go far enough in questioning the military policy, the military-industrial complex, and so on, but you know I think that's the price you pay for being in the Democratic Party. And Bernie [Sanders] has to pay that price.
Jill Stein
If my campaign is not in the debate, we will not have a real discussion of the emergency of climate change and why in fact we need a Green New Deal type national mobilization at the scale of a wartime mobilization in order to address this emergency.
Jill Stein
Bernie [Sanders], the team player, he made it known from the very start that he would be supporting the Democratic nominee, presumably Hillary Clinton, and what we learned in the course of Bernie's campaign is that you cannot have a revolutionary campaign in a counter-revolutionary party.
Jill Stein
Let me say, it's - what a commentary it is on American media that you have to go to Russian television in order to get covered as a candidate in this election. It's pretty outrageous. And our media could solve that in a heartbeat if they actually opened it up, you know, but they don't. So I think that's more commentary on the crisis in our media.
Jill Stein
I was really interested in how a health care center could also be a center for the arts and for music, and for bringing together sort of the isolated elements of the community.
Jill Stein
We have not been successful in deterring the growth or expansion of any terrorist group that we've been fighting.
Jill Stein
The largest bloc of voters now has divorced the Democratic and Republican parties, which are now minority parties and the plurality of voters now are independent. They're looking for something else.
Jill Stein
I'm trained as a medical doctor - that's my field: I've been practicing long enough to see how extremely broken our health care system is, how broken our health is, the link between that and the environment.
Jill Stein
I'm sorry. If you're working as secretary of state, you do not have time to be spending half of your volume of emails on your own private stuff, whether it's a nonprofit private business or whether it is a for-profit private business. You should not be doing that on company time.
Jill Stein
The majority of American voters have rejected both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.
Jill Stein
We call for a welcoming path to citizenship, an end to police violence, and a transformed foreign policy based on international law and human rights - not based on these policies of regime change and economic and military domination.
Jill Stein
I think, as a white person, I do not want to speak for a black person.
Jill Stein
Right now we have a bipartisan debate commission, when most Americans are not members of the bipartisan establishment.
Jill Stein
Yet we have a voting system that forbids us from actually bringing our values into our vote, which is, in my view, quite a disaster.
Jill Stein
Democracy is not what we hate the most and what we fear the most. We need to stand up.
Jill Stein
I became really interested in the community health care movement and community health centers, which Boston was sort of a leading center for.
