More quotes by Jill Stein
We the voters demand the right to be in charge here, to be informed, to be empowered.
Jill Stein
I think it depends on what agenda that female president brings. It's not good if that female president brings an agenda which is actually hostile to the cause of living wages. Women need equal wages to men, but not equal wages at poverty.
Jill Stein
We have two thousand nuclear weapons on the trigger alert right now and Hillary Clinton wants to start an air war with Russia, a nuclear-armed power, over Syria as the means of addressing ISIS and the crisis in Syria.
Jill Stein
The specific trigger for me was when the President [Barack Obama] put Medicare and Social Security on the chopping block. Why I got into the race - it just seemed unconscionable that the Democrats were leading the charge.
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
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
If pigs could fly, yes, of course I would vote for the Democratic Party, but pigs don't fly.
Jill Stein
You have endorsements, everyone from Meg Whitman to the neocon John Negroponte and others who are all saying, you know, we're with Hillary [Clinton] now.
Jill Stein
We cannot simultaneously fight terrorism, we and our allies, while with the other hand we fund terrorism, arm terrorism and train terrorism.
Jill Stein
If past behavior is any indication, we're in a lot of trouble with Hillary Clinton in the White House, as well, who has promised to start a no-fly zone in Syria, which amounts to a declaration of war against Russia.
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.
Jill Stein
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.
Jill Stein
I have had a long tug-of-war going on with the FDA, in particular, and with other regulatory agencies, and it has nothing to do with vaccines.
Jill Stein
[My mother] was busy being a homemaker and was not an activist by any means.
Jill Stein
I am not an expert on the Clinton Foundation, so, you know, I don't want to pass judgment on it.
Jill Stein
You cannot solve the climate crisis if you are putting people out of work.
Jill Stein
Moving to 100 percent renewable energy means we no longer need and can no longer justify wars for oil.
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
There is no such thing as a survivable or local nuclear war.
Jill Stein
I think we really have to take a good, hard look at our system of corporate consolidated press. We need to break them up.
Jill Stein
