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.

More quotes by Jill Stein
There are very complicated issues here [about NATO], and I don't want to give them short shrift.
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
Right now we have a bipartisan debate commission, when most Americans are not members of the bipartisan establishment.
Jill Stein
Our fundraising went up about a thousand percent and that's largely been sustained.
Jill Stein
Even heads of our own security agency said, you know, we need to take a deep breath on this. This really doesn't seem to be happening [that Russians are trying to influence American domestic politics ].
Jill Stein
Maybe Bernie [Sanders] lost his perspective because he became a part of the Washington culture. Maybe it's a generational thing.
Jill Stein
If people fear that they have to choose between their job or fixing the climate, they will always protect their job. Because that's how they live to see tomorrow.
Jill Stein
It's not possible to solve the climate crisis while we continue to expand fracking.
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
To millennials, the Democratic Party is the party of endless debt, it is the party of low-wage jobs, it is the part of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, it is the party of the KXL pipeline, which was only stopped because, you know, because we, the voters, you know, just worked our bones - you know, worked ourselves to the bone in order to stop it.
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
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
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
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
It's really quite astounding to see what the science says we can actually do.
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
I mean, this is a joke, to try to implicate me as like a friend of the Russians.
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
In the words of Alice Walker, the biggest way people give up power is by not knowing we have it to start with. We have it: just to look at the power of fighting student debt or 25 million Latinos who learned that the Republicans are the party that hate and fear but Democrats are the party of people deportation and detention.
Jill Stein
Right now we also have this epidemic of obesity and diabetes.
