    Sorry Donald, not buying your con man game. We have no common cause with you or HRC. We fight to replace both parties that have sold out the American people. Your racist sexist ecocidal swamp of a presidency is the last gasp of the 2-party death trap. System change is coming.
    Crooked Hillary Clinton just called the respected environmentalist and Green Party candidate, Jill Stein, a “Russian Asset.” They need a Green Party more than ever after looking at the Democrats disastrous environmental program!

    HRC continues to compete with the Orange One to see who is most off the wall. Clinton lost due to her incompetency, family corruption and embrace of the 1%. The Dems lost when they rigged the primaries against Bernie. . P.S. I was Stein's campaign manager in 2016..

    Hillary strongly implies that Tulsi Gabbard is a Russian asset who will act to serve the Kremlin's interest. Also says there's no doubt Jill Stein is. Does she have evidence for these grave accusations? Of course not. None is needed in Dem Party discourse. It's gutter trash.

    I and the Green Party support ranked choice voting. Even better is the proportional representation system used in almost all of the world's democracies, where legislative bodies reflect the makeup of the voters.
    NY Times endorses ranked choice voting (IRV) which will be on the ballot in NYC this November - though only for primaries and special elections not the general election where it would help third parties like the Greens. …

    The Democrats have killed single payer health care at key moments over decades. Of course they will not stand up to the health care and drug industry. In NYS we can't pass single payer even when the Dems control all branches of government.

    The constant praise of John McCain is sickening. John McCain was a racist, a warmonger, he hated the poor, he voted against anything that would have done an inch of good for people who work for a living.

    Not a single question about climate change. Neither the Democrats nor the Republicans will ever even mention the only solution to the greatest threat we face today. We need a socialist Green New Deal or we're sunk. Join my campaign:
