Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein said Republican Party nominee Donald Trump and Democratic Party nominee Hillary Clinton "have not earned our vote" for president.
"The whole ticket's going to be here", said Kozma, volunteer coordinator for Stein's MI campaign. The first is that minor-party presidential candidates tend to fade down the stretch. If it were to happen nearly immediately, it could push Gary Johnson over the threshold for making the debates, and if he lays off the doobies before ascending the stage, that could be something of a game-changer for him. The mainstream media are owned by Republicans and Democrats. Probably, but her stance has always been a little ambiguous, perhaps in an effort to get those sweet, sweet anti-vaxxer votes.
Vaccinations are a critical part of our health infrastructure and we badly need them, so I think what I have raised questions about is just influence peddling in the FDA.
This is basically the line Dr. Stein has been using throughout the election, which is that vaccinations are fine or whatevz, but there's corruption at the FDA.
As Donald Trump's prospects have diminished, so too has the likelihood that Gary Johnson, Jill Stein or Evan McMullin will play any significant role in the 2016 election. They don't truly believe in Hillary Clinton, but they feel they must vote for her in order to defeat Trump. If after that procedure, there is still no candidate with a majority, the next-worst finisher (following the initial reallocation) is dropped, and his votes are redistributed to the second-place choice on his ballots (or the third-place choice if the second-place choice has also been eliminated). If you're exhausted of arguing politics on Facebook all day, here's a good chance to switch things up and argue planetary nomenclature instead. See, third parties CAN work at the national level in American politics! The four pillars of the party are non-violence, grassroots democracy, social justice and ecological wisdom. The former New Mexico governor got 16 percent in the Colorado Quinnipiac poll.

Nevertheless, this is certainly the best chance for a third party this century, reflecting two weak candidates but also wider trends within American society.
A functional democracy should be able to find room for a real debate involving a Democrat, a Republican, a Libertarian and a Green. You can't win, they say, because you won't be in the debates.
Stein plans to meet supporters Sunday from 1 to 3 p.m.at the Mercury Café located at 2199 California St. Eugene McCarthy, who in 1976 ran as an independent, drew only 740,000 votes but almost enabled President Gerald Ford to defeat Democrat Jimmy Carter by tipping three closely divided states to the GOP.
The major themes of the Libertarian Party are freedom and individual rights.
But, according to a new ABC/SSRS online poll released today, 59 percent of voters worry that casting a ballot for a third-party hopeful could cause their least-preferred candidate to win the presidency. Candidates take a range of positions on a variety of issues.
