WASHINGTON (TND) — Dr.Jill Stein, who is a Green Party presidential candidate, has selected Professor Butch Ware as her vice-presidential running mate.
"This is truly a historic ticket bringing together a Jewish woman and Black Muslim man against genocide, endless war, climate collapse, and rampant injustice, and for an economy that works for working people, a livable future for our children, and an America and a world that works for all of us.”
She forgot to mention how it was all brought together in the first place by a white male dictator in Russia.
No russians made Jill Stein run for president. lmao
In regular times, maybe. The DNC abandoned the idea of incorporating third party policies ages ago.
I wish voting for this ticket could keep my conscious clean but that’s just not how reality works.
And I can support and totally respect your opinion on that. And I get it.
But for me, variations of people/parties saying, “Oh, we need change, but not THIS election” or “NOW isn’t the time, it’s too imporant to try now…” has been said for the last 50 years.
50 years!
So no, I’m done with the whole, “Not this time, next time tho!” line of thinking. I’m voting for who I want to vote for. And it feels awesome.
I’m with you but this late into the cycle for a general election really isn’t the time for it. The real work starts local then pushes up. Getting a mayor, state reps, etc paves the way for more desirable senators and eventually, a president.
I stopped voting third party for big ticket elections in 2016. My state has had margins within 10k and we’ve ended up with my worst nightmares as reps.
Thanks. But I’m still voting for her. And I am especially happy with her VP pick.
But yeah, if you feel like you can’t vote for her in good conscience, then for sure vote for who works best for you. I totally support and respect that decision.
Appeal to oppression olympians. An interesting strategy. Let’s see how this plays out.
I like what I know of him so far. But I don’t know a bunch about him just yet, since he was just announced. But on paper so far, I like him.
Having said that, I doubt very much it will sway anyone who wasn’t already going to vote Green anyway.
