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.

We need a broad commitment to human rights across the board. We cannot attain that simply by protecting one oppressed group or the other.

The economic insecurity of the past ten to 15 years, the 2008 Wall Street crash, NAFTA, and the loss of millions of good jobs - these directly grow out of Democratic Party neo-liberal policies.
Jill Stein

You cannot solve the climate crisis if you are putting people out of work.

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.

Who knows what it is, but he [Donald Trump] is incapable of having a consistent thought or policy.
Jill Stein
Image
We call for a new kind of offensive in the Middle East because our current approach has a track record and it's not a good one.

I just want to note that 43 million young people in debt is enough to win a three-way Presidential race.

We call for cancelling student debt, for bailing out young people like Wall Street was bailed out to the tune of $16 trillion.

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

Maybe Bernie [Sanders] lost his perspective because he became a part of the Washington culture. Maybe it's a generational thing.
Jill Stein
Image
By needlessly provoking him [Vladimir Putin] and humiliating him, we empower far worse possibilities in Russia.
Jill Stein
Image
You don't do that while you're being paid by taxpayers to do a very difficult and full-time job, and you also do not bring Clinton Foundation interests into the domain of the secretary of state, and you do not give preferred access to your own personal clients.
Jill Stein

We know that from the studies, like the Gilens and Page study out of Northwestern and Princeton, if you didn't know it from real life. We're not moving forward, we're moving backwards, and the clock is ticking on this, whether you look at climate or the expanding wars.
Jill Stein
Image
[ Iraq and Afghanistan] don't get better, they only get worse. Bombing them has only enabled them to grow and multiply.
Jill Stein
Image
This is very dangerous for us, as a society, and I think people deserve a politics of integrity that is not bought and paid for by big banks, fossil fuel giants, war profiteers, insurance companies, the things that those two corporate parties both represent and which pull the strings inside the party.
Jill Stein
Image
Maybe he [Bernie Sanders] still thinks about the Democratic Party as the party of the New Deal.

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
Image
That's not to say they [Bill and Hillary Clinton] intend to be corrupt, but I think they're way too cozy with the economic elite, and we know that our political system exemplifies the power of the economic elite.

We don't supply a hundred billion dollars worth of weapons to the war criminals in Saudi Arabia nor do we supply eight million dollars a day to the Israeli army that is also violating international law and human rights.
