More quotes by 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
You cannot solve the climate crisis if you are putting people out of work.
Jill Stein
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.
Jill Stein
Democracy is not what we hate the most and what we fear the most. We need to stand up.
Jill Stein
Historically, if you look back at the struggle to end slavery, the struggle to gain womens' right to vote, the labor movement - these were big social transitions in which there was a movement on the ground in which a lot of people died, but it also took an independent political party.
Jill Stein
I don't think people were overmedicated, but I think health care cannot stop in the clinic. If all we do is throw pills and procedures at people after they're already sick and we don't deal with what's making them sick to start with, that's a real problem.
Jill Stein
The next Wall Street crash is just around the corner. The meltdown of the climate is coming. The wolves are at the door, all kinds of them. We need to stand up and provide the solutions that are there, that are affordable.
Jill Stein
The Green Party provides the infrastructure, kind of the culture of watchdogging the electoral bureaucracy, and how you participate, how you get on the ballot, stuff like that which is very difficult to do unless you have billions of dollars.
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
For ISIS, the answer is to cut off their food, their water, their armaments, you know, and their funding. I don't mean literally their food and water. What I mean is cutting off their life support system.
Jill Stein
I don't support ObamaCare and see it as a step backward that entrenches the power of the private health care industry.
Jill Stein
We don't have to convince people how screwed they are.
Jill Stein
It takes truth, and it takes speaking truth to power, but because the stranglehold is so tight it seems to take something else - a real political threat.
Jill Stein
Big Money politicians do not have a new form of entitlement. They do not own our votes.
Jill Stein
Remember, the majority of Donald Trump supporters don't actually support him. They're mainly motivated by not liking Hillary Clinton.
Jill Stein
You know, Bernie [Sanders] is - he is a team player. I think he's on the wrong team, perhaps because he's been in Washington, D.C., too long, because he used to really understand independent politics and why we cannot have a viable political system unless we have independent political parties. Otherwise we just keep marching to the right.

The threshold by the Commission on Presidential Debates. In the words of the League of Women Voters, they are a fraud being perpetrated on the American public.

We call for a weapons embargo.

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.

I'm a medical doctor by training. I'm a physician, not a politician. And I'm in this as a mother on fire.
