    I don't know much about her other than she is dislikes both Trump and Clinton, She thinks Trump is an idiot and Clinton is a danger to the world who will start war.

    I am not against Jill Stein at all I would be fine if she won, but I'm not a fan of her policies they focus more on the environment and preserving it rather than building a stronger better nation with jobs to help us all and stop and reverse further corruption in the government.

    In the end if Jill Stein won which is still possible if it comes down to a tie, no one reaches 270 or Jill or Gary takes one of the states it could be a possibility, but if she won I don't see her hurting or destroying the country, I'd see more regulations and such trying to preserve our environment and her intentions are good but I really don't see her rebuilding our jobs market that much.

    That is why I want Donald Trump.

    Jill Stein can't win. In order to win, she would have to get some Electoral College votes. The only third-party candidate who looks like he may win some Electoral College votes is Ed McMullin. If his numbers hold, he'll take Utah. If Utah's six Electoral votes go to him AND if Clinton and Trump each fail to get the minimum 270 electoral college votes needed to win the Electoral College, which can only be made possible by a third party taking some of the votes, then the House of Representatives gets to elect the next President of the United States from those candidates who acquired Electoral Votes, which would be Clinton, Trump, or McMullin. There is no "if" scenario for Jill Stein because there's no state in which she is anywhere close to being able to get any Electoral votes at all. Stein may get more votes nationally than, say, Ed McMullin, but by not taking any individual state in order to acquire votes in the Electoral College, she cannot be elected President.

    Jill Stein would have zero chance as she's way left of Hillary and Hillary many think is too liberal. While I would say I'm definitely left of center by U.S. standards Stein's ideas need a lot of discussion on how they actually play out in reality. Where does all the money for all those programs come from, does her foreign policy deal with reality or just idealistic wishful thinking, what would her proposals do to the economy, are they even feasible, etc...? Not saying there might be good ideas but so far they are just that and some have likely unrealistic expectations or negative consequences too.

    I would consider supporting Sanders but not Stein as a candidate for many reasons you can read at links.

    But to not be entirely negative I think someone who wants to invest in society is a good thing with balance, a balance in regulation and freedom in markets also needed, principles of peace and human rights positive, protecting environment from excessive pollution or abusive practices good.

    Hard to answer such a low odds request. She is not even in third place. And does not seem to have even as much brains as Johnson. Who only looks good in comparison to Trump.
