can something good be said about Jill Stein?

Does she support some environmental good policies?
 
I guess she supports medicare for all and a ban on fracking.

You have to understand the differences between the American and European Green Parties. Green Parties in Europe are electorally viable, meaning reasonable environmentally minded politicians join them, and come to dominate these parties. In the US reasonable environmentally minded politicians join the Democrats. Meaning the Green party is left with the crazier kind of people, that often don't mind losing much, because if they wanted to ever hold real influence they'd never join the Green Party. The Libertarians have the same problem, decent, reasonable libertarian minded politicians join the Republicans. Leaving the Libertarian party with a crazy bunch.

We still quote him (or SNLs version)
Any time we're talking and someone interrupts (at home only), we might sometimes say "Can I finish can I finish".

A businessman who actually ran a big business and knew his shit. Knew about what workers needed and corporate greed, and appeared to like the challenge of balancing that out.
 
I don't see why she stayed in the race if she doesn't like Trump. She will win zero EC land votes and will only pull votes from Harris.

I'm very frustrated with our system. I shouldn't be pushed into arguing that third parties should drop out because there's only one viable alternative to Trump. That's the ****ing case, though. Add in that I'm to the left of Harris when it comes to some issues, and that makes it even more frustrating. Ok, moving on.

Green Party USA is a bunch of Grifter Cicadas.
 
"Can something good be said about Jill Stein?"

No, not at all, not a single damn thing.

Okay, perhaps one thing... as far as I know she did not have a porn star sign an NDA in order to have sex with them while married to someone else. There... something good said... by our forum cynic.

I know it's obvious, but you're so not alone in this stuff.

Old Big Ears was actually a pretty good person.
He might have even made a decent POTUS, despite being a little too centerr-Right.

I just read some wiki on him, worked his way up from nothing, helped shape the honor code at the naval academy...

" Perot stated that USA was in crisis caused by "the decade of greed, the era of trickle-down economic"

Spot on. He definitely knew what was going on.
