Much like Gary Johnson (L), Jill Stein (G) has put her hat in the ring for a second shot at the White House in 2016. Would you consider a vote for her?

Who is Jill Stein?
All I remember Jill Stein for was a long list of entitlements she wants to put in place.
Who is Jill Stein?
she wants a "Green" New Deal. she's pretty much the stereotype of a liberal Jewish Ivy league grad when it comes to policies
In a lot of ways the Green party is just a more extreme democratic party. If someone likes what the democrats are selling, but thinks they don't go far enough the green party might just be for them.

i'll take massive oversimplifications for $1000 , alex.
Where Stein is superior in alot of ways economically, she is weak on gun rights and for expanding bureaucracies like the FDA/EPA/DoE/etc. Also, though I consider myself a strong environmentalist, I do feel her policies take that to the extreme in alot of ways. Furthermore, I'm for more localized education, school choice, homeschool rights, so on. Which Stein does not bring to the table.

where do Greens and the Dem leadership actually differ other than on magnitude
she's a gun banner-so is Obama
She's a tax hiker-so is Obama
she wants to get rid of coal-so does Obama
etc
More generally, Stein's not an individualist. Libertarians are individualists. She has nothing in common with them except for superficial declarations on privacy rights and some civil issues. Concretely, her ideology is rather antithetical to libertarianism. Environmentalists believe that group rights and environmental rights should trump individual rights.
Stein: soak the rich, higher taxes, larger federal government, more gun control, pro-global warming industry, anti-private enterprise, etc.
Yep.
citations needed on claim #1
as to her/Green vs Democrats(or specifically Obama)
end corporate personhood
holds Israel partly responsible for current conditions
end nation building excursions
end NAFTA/ other assymetrical free trade that causes illegal immigration and outsourcing
full public financing of elections
end patriot act
etc
her position paper says she wants "assault weapon bans"
