Jill Stein is an opposition candidate

[obamanut2012]

I personally think it's a waste of energy to post random OPs attacking her. But...

Stein has spent a great deal of time attacking Hillary, often on a very personal level, has tried enticing Bernie to run with her, attacks Democrats and the Party, and is now being snarky about Hillary AND Bernie. Is she a spoiler ala Nader in 2000? I think not. I think Johnson is more of one, but one for Trump, not us.

So, do I think Stein is a legit threat in November? Personally, no, but as long as she attacks the Democratic nominee and her advocates, Stein deserves any blowback she gets, here or wherever.

I personally wish the Greens WOULD elect more people, starting with state-level officials and moving on to Federal-level Reps and Senators, and I don't understand why Stein doesn't focus on that to build a strong foundation and get the Greens message out. But she doesn't. She sure seems to like to run for President, though.

For the record: I am obviously not ultra left, but I am most definitely far left. I do not consider myself a Dem although I am a registered DEm and vote Democratic.

4. She doesn't deserve to be talked about as a real candidate.

5. I have never had conversation about the woman, until I find us being told here, we are not allowed

to have conversation about the woman.

Lol.

I do not care about her either, but if others want to call her out because of what she says about our candidate, they have every right to call her out on this Democratic message board.

9. Exactly my point, Sea!

6. The Green Party is effectively a GOP SuperPAC, and Jill Stein is effectively a Trump surrogate.

She deserves to be criticized as much as any other Trump surrogate.

7. Stein seems to know so little about politics, it's as if she's never been elected to anything before

13. That's not fair!

She's totally like one heartbeat away from making lead dog-catcher in her municipality.

Hater.

11. A professional opponent is little better than a Tea Partier complaining about Obama's suit color.

It's always 'Opposite Day' in the Green Party.
