More quotes by Jill Stein
Democracy cannot function just on who do we fear the most, you know, or who do we hate the most we need an affirmative agenda.
Jill Stein
We were out there with the people whose homes were flooded out in Southern Louisiana. We are out there on the front line with everyday people fighting the real frontline battle that real Americans are fighting.
Jill Stein
When you actually integrate the health savings from an improved food system, eliminating food deserts, ensuring that everyone can afford a healthy diet, that you don't have to be sort of a person of substantial means in order to have access to healthy food, there are remarkable health improvements.
Jill Stein
The politics of fear has brought us everything we are afraid of, including the endless wars, the collapsing economy - all the rest.
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
Democracy needs a moral compass.
Jill Stein
Democracy needs to start with an open Presidential debate. So come on out and let's take back the promise of our democracy.
Jill Stein
To my mind, to say that says to young people and you probably are not going to get out of debt, and you probably do not have a climate that's going to be here come 2050. And, in my view, the point is not necessarily to win now but it's to begin building our power.
Jill Stein
If pigs could fly, yes, of course I would vote for the Democratic Party, but pigs don't fly.
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
I actually studied Indian classical vocal music.
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
We also call for a freeze on the bank accounts of those countries, including our allies, with due warning.
Jill Stein
Even the majority of their own voters do not support them. It's something like 25 percent of [Donald] Trump supporters that actually support him. The majority actually hates Hillary [Clinton], and the same is true for Hillary. One-third of her supporters really like her. They dislike fear and hate Donald Trump. What's wrong with this picture?
Jill Stein
We deserve elections we can trust.
Jill Stein
I think, charitable foundations are, in general, a good thing.
Jill Stein
We really are, we represent, the core of basic American community values. And the name of the game is getting the word out, you know, and they are quaking in their boots, which, of course, is why they will not pass ranked choice voting.
Jill Stein
As Bernie Sanders himself said, you know, the [Donald] Trump movement reflects the economic despair and misery that's been inflicted not only on the American people but people around the world.
Jill Stein
My support is particularly Bernie Sanders supporters but that's drawn many [Donald] Trump supporters to start with.
Jill Stein
This is sort of the Cuban Missile Crisis on steroids, what we are doing to Russia right now, and I don't think this is a good idea.
