    Hello.
    What is the problem with going for 'Jill Stain'?
    Why hasn't she collected enough vote previously?

    Do you usually respond to your own posts?

    The Green Party that Jill Stein is a part of, is a party that not too many Americans are accustomed to. Americans don't usually vote for third parties. Also, since the 2000 presidential election, people are more reluctant to vote for third party candidates. For example, Ralph Nader (the Green Party nominee in 2000) was blamed for Al Gore's loss to George Bush. He's blamed for siphoning votes away from Gore in Florida, therefore costing him the election. If Nader hadn't run in the first place, Gore would have won since more voters would have been on his side. Right now, nobody on the left wants Donald Trump to win the election. They're afraid of possibly handing the election to Trump by voting for Jill Stein instead of Hillary Clinton.

    Personally, I like Jill Stein (even though I'm not American). I'd much rather see her in office and I'd much rather have Jill as the first female US president. She's way more respectable than Hillary Clinton.

    I am also not American, but US elections affect us moree than our own elections do.

    It is possible that the election of A'jad had something to do with the election of George W. Bush, they both being extremist hardliners.
