I’ll say it again. Voting for Jill Stein? Don’t.

"Al Gore: If You Care About The Climate Crisis, Don’t Vote For A Third Party

“In my experience, it matters a lot.”

I used to give large sums to environmental charities, but then I was struck by a depressing thought. What’s the point of hugging a tree if G.W. Bush is President? He and his kin will devote the full force of the US Government to maintaining an energy policy that has created today’s mess and promoting an environmental policy designed to destroy the environment. I felt that I had a higher calling. My “God” (ha) told me that I must tackle the problem at the root. Expose and destroy StupidParty. Therefore to protect the planet, to protect humanity, I had to devote all my energies to taking the Stupid out of StupidParty. I do not really care who gets in the way of this objective–all such barriers must be destroyed even it that means going after a fellow “greeny”— if they are a threat to my planet, my home.

Voting for Jill Stein is the same as voting for Trump. (OK, not a precise mathematical fact-but let’s not get too geeky)"

She's a progressive but she's blinded by ideology and will be an utter disaster in WH.
