More quotes by 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
Who passed Wall Street deregulation that enabled the meltdown of Wall Street and the disappearance of nine million jobs, the theft of 5 million homes?
Jill Stein
Most progressive in the Democratic Party doesn't cut it, you know. If we still can't have a health care system that provides health care as a human right, if we still cannot, you know, ban fracking and fossil fuels and move like our lives depend on it - you know, we say in the next 15 years we need to phase out fossil fuels.
Jill Stein
We have a system that's really founded on profit and on selling pharmaceuticals as opposed to keeping people healthy and then helping them get back to health.
Jill Stein
Which is a real heads-up about what Hillary's [Clinton] agenda is. We've seen Hillary flip-flop, but she's had a pretty consistent track record. Which is that she has been a very good friend to the banks, received enormous support from them.
Jill Stein
There are potentially hundreds of billion dollars, potentially more, that could be saved by moving to a clean energy system. Studies [on healthier diet] show those savings, in fact, are enough to pay the costs of creating 100% clean renewable energy.
Jill Stein
We need to really use the full force of diplomacy. And we need to be seen and understood to be on the side of diplomacy and international law.
Jill Stein
Democracy needs a moral compass.
Jill Stein
I found that the walls that are created by the institutions of health care are very problematic, and I felt not good about giving people pills and procedures and then sending them back out to the things that were making them sick in the first place.
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
In terms of the role of the media, that is my candidacy which does provide that truly progressive agenda that gets to the heart of what is driving this right-wing extremism.It's not just Donald Trump. Hillary Clinton is not going to be the solution here.
Jill Stein
Is such an alliance helpful to us in this day and age? Are we creating a cold war in order to justify NATO?
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
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
I have always been involved in issue-based politics, not party politics - I was never really originally drawn to party politics.
Jill Stein
In other words, speaking truth as a social movement may move you forward in some ways, but to really lock in and have real enduring change, it takes both a movement on the ground and an independent political party that is itself the defiance of that two-party corporate big-money control of politics.
Jill Stein
We call for a bailout for an entire generation that is basically held hostage by unpayable student-loan debt.
Jill Stein
We also call for a freeze on the bank accounts of those countries, including our allies, with due warning.
Jill Stein
The key here in my view is not having to change people's minds, it's just allowing them to know.
Jill Stein
I was very engaged by the folk music movement.Bob Dylan Joan Baez Peter, Paul and Mary. And then I sort of discovered world music, and fell in love with ethnic music of all sorts.
