We have other choices this election. I’m choosing Jill Stein

I want a president of proven character who understands the domestic and global issues we face and will lead us to solutions by communicating the truth. If lies lead to wars (and our own history proves they have), then truth can lead us to peace. That is why I support Dr. Jill Stein. She is truthful, able to explain our issues clearly, and addresses them by thoughtful policies. (See her YouTube “debate response” to hear her in person.)
How telling of our “democratic” process that our two parties and corporate media have focused solely on the candidates they chose for us! We have other choices! Dr. Jill Stein, Dr. Cornell West and Robert Kennedy.
Jill Stein is our only candidate of character with momentum. She will stop the slaughter of Palestinians, pursue peace in our proxy war against Russia, (thereby saving Ukraine from total destruction), and act decisively to preserve climate and environment. The Green Party stands behind her.
In 2020 Greens had ballot status in 30 states and write-in status in 9 states. Isn’t real democracy about giving all candidates a fair chance? Yes! Jill is not indebted to any moneyed interests. She refuses PAC and AIPAC contributions. She answers to us.
I encourage you to sign her petition for Iowa ballot access by contacting: Iowa@gp.org or messaging Iowa Green Party on Facebook.
