Green Party Nominee Jill Stein Invites Bernie Sanders To Take Over Ticket
Nice timing, Jill, as Sanders is set to endorse Hillary. Will he take the bait?
Bernie Sanders has been invited to continue his underdog bid for the White House by the Green partys probable presidential candidate, who has offered to step aside to let him run.
Jill Stein, who is expected to be endorsed at the partys August convention in Houston, told Guardian US that overwhelming numbers of Sanders supporters are flocking to the Greens rather than Hillary Clinton.
Stein insisted that her presidential bid has a viable near term goal of reaching 15% in national polling, which would enable her to stand alongside presumptive nominees Clinton and Donald Trump in televised election debates.
But in a potentially destabilising move for the Democratic party, and an exciting one for Sanders supporters, the Green party candidate said she was willing to stand aside for Sanders.
