Might as well vote for Jill Stein for president.

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.

So don't throw your vote away, vote for Jill Stein!

I like Jill Stein I just feel like it's not really the right time.

We are going through a lot of BS right now and someone needs to get things in order and unfortunately I don't think she can do it.
Maybe when things are going really well we can give someone like that a shot.

As I have said before, I don't vote for the lesser of two evils and I definitely don't vote for cheaters, so Jill Stein will definitely be getting my vote. I think the only way to make real change in this country is to send the message that there needs to be real change in our political structure or we will start voting for someone else.

I actually wouldn't be surprised to see Gary Johnson get a lot more votes than expected as well. Hillary and Trump will probably see the lowest voter turnout for them that I will ever see.

LOL.......we need her because things are not going well. I realize this is Hillary's argument but it's a joke. Hillary helped screw things up. She is incapable of fixing them.

There is a meme going around with a picture of Stein and I've noted that I'm not a fan of meme's but it notes, "I am the woman that doesn't support the bombing of other people's children".

Most meme's are only roughly based in truth. This one is at least spot on.

Then don't. If that is the decision you have come to, follow through and don't worry about it. I would hope you would vote local down ticket though.

That fine. But address the fact that is another option. Voting 3rd is not the only option to the major parties.
