Hillary or Trump? You are throwing your vote away if you vote for either clown.
But wait, I thought throwing your vote way was for third party candidates?
However, if you vote for Hillary or Trump, and you are going against all your principles, then you are literally throwing your vote away. Voting for Hillary because she's not Trump, even though she's the most corrupt candidate whose equally corrupt party will sell you down the river for a couple of dollars? You are definitely throwing your vote away voting for her. Voting for a candidate (Hillary) who is (even now) championing trade agreements such as TPP which makes you lose your job, just because she's not Trump? Absolutely positively throwing your vote away.
If you have any principles, aren't getting a sweet government job payback or just plain cash for supporting a corrupt party, then do not throw your vote away and vote for someone whose principles actually aligns with yours, and vote for Jill.
I respect your opinion but Jill Stein isn't going to appeal to everyone. She is kind of out there (especially for a medical doctor) with regard to her vaccine stance .
I would consider a Jill Stein IF she ever serves in a lower office. I know she has run for governor a couple of times but has not won. You can't start at the top, IMO.
And - her big plan to get things passed is to govern by EO per the interview I saw.

Can you at least vote on the down ballot races?

Well? I don't think Sanders was delusional; he has served in the Senate for 30 years. I believe he knew his ideas were unlikely to get passed but that's not something you bring up in a stump speech.
Dr. Stein seems like one smart cookie, but she wouldn't know what to do with herself if she were somehow elected. Can she be America's Commander in Chief or its Chief Diplomat? Not a chance.
I'm as left as they come, but Jill Stein is weak and the Green Party has gone of the rails catering to low-education voters (anti-vax, scaremongering around GMOs).
I've sat in her living room - she's a lovely person. The kind of person you want to run your PTA, not any form of government office. Stein lacks leadership.

Leadership like that has got us into the messes in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and Syria? Like that?
A vote for the Green Party is not a wasted vote at all.
Greens are a force in Europe, and they will become a force in America
because the young and perceptive can see straight through all the
lies and pandering of the Democrats.
Long term, the Greens have the best chance to become the most
powerful 3rd Party in America, with their enthusiasm and originality.
