This!

You also can't have someone jump from "no political experience" to "highest office in the land." Jill Stein seems like good people, but the only position she's ever actually held is "town meeting representative for Lexington" -- and that was five years ago. At least Gary Johnson was a state governor -- but as a Republican, because Libertarians haven't worked up that far in their own right.

(obligatory note that this is also one of many reasons Trump would crash and burn if we were obtuse enough to elect him)

Slightly OT, but I'd like to argue the statement that Jill Stein is good people: http://www.forbes.com/sites/emilywillingham/2016/07/29/theres-nothing-green-about-jill-steins-vaccine-stance/#3b8ceb0e6465 I'm on immunosuppressants, so this is personal for me.

So she's used language that panders to antivaxxers, and that's not good. But she's also flat-out said "As a medical doctor, of course I support vaccines." And other unequivocal statements about how they're good and important. (Which they obviously are.)

I'm not saying not to criticize her at all, I just think, on balance, that still puts her on the light side of the force.

Oh, come on. She used the words "toxic substances like mercury." The amounts of mercury in vaccines at the time were so minuscule you'd have to take a hundred vaccines at once to approach what you get eating a single freaking can of tuna. We don't need politicians, especially not politicians who are doctors, for pete's sake, pulling bullshit language to pander to anti-vaxxers. And away from real science.

[dethtoll]

Yeah, this. Trying to waffle and understate the importance of vaccines and making vague references to common anti-vax rhetoric isn't good in any sense.

Jill Stein is a piece of work. As someone who has extensively been working in healthcare for many years, I have zero respect for her. They should recall her medical license.
