I was so excited to vote for Obama in 2008 that I could not wait for the polls to open.
I am more excited to vote for Jill Stein in 2012, even though I realize she does not have a prayer of winning the electoral votes of even one state.
I don’t think I will ever vote Democratic at the top of the ticket again, barring a dramatic shift in Party.
Republicans + “Third” Way = two Republican Parties = Turd Way.
We should stop calling Greens a third Party. It’s really only the second.
That’s what Nader was trying to tell us during the administration of DLC founding member Bill Clinton; and I refused to believe it.
Well, I believe it now.
I’ve voted third party in the past, making exceptions for Dems here and there. I can’t and won’t, be making exceptions for Dems anymore, down ticket or anything else.
After seeing way the Dem Party has embraced and supported Obama I’m done with them for good. Especially after seeing the way they relentlessly squash any hope of a down ticket progressive Dem candidate being elected.
I’ve been supporting both Jill Stein and Rocky Anderson and will end up voting for the one who seems to have the most national momentum come election time. My state allows write-ins so it won’t matter so much to to me if one or the other doesn’t get on the ballot.
Thank you, jest!
The argument about the Fed was great – good for Jill!

Thanks for posting the video. Recommended.
yup.
at first I thought the guy in his underwear in the ad was Barney Frank! I sm voting for her or Rocky…Jill has put her money where mouth is so I am leaning her way
I am surprised to see Thom doing this interview in a friendly way because he is such an obamabot. Thom will occassionally point out o problematic moves and then say he supports him.
