Just saw an ad by her. That's declaring war as far as I'm concerned.

(2,542 posts)Stein is a fraud and a liar, not worth engaging because of how dishonest she is about nearly everything.

She and her running mate don't even leave the bench in this election.
If she were going after Trump - he would hit back. And hard. She's not though.
I think HRC is smart enough to 'not be like Trump' with someone so insignificant in this election.
The fact that she (Stein) is NOT going after Trump kind of shows she doesn't have the mettle to hit him or anyone else head on unless they are a person who as common decency ingrained in them.

(68,576 posts)ads against all candidates anyway. she is a tool and POS...She runs ads to help Trump win...the Greens suck on all levels...they have been dead to me since 2000.

(58,785 posts)Don't forget, political forum people are weird. Most Americans don't care, don't realize or have forgotten that there is a Green Party, much less that whatever-her-name-is is running.
Besides counterproductive, running an ad anywhere would be...bizarre, kind of like Trump ranting at his rallies, not about Hillary, but about a fire marshal who enforced occupancy restrictions. The media's standards for her are infinitely higher than for Trump, and they would not be kind.
But those who think the Greens are a threat are free to go to war. I suggest taking the battle to a forum where Greens gather for maximum destruction. Or just donate again to the Hillary campaign so they can ignore them even more effectively.

(11,605 posts)I don't think it's enough to tell people that a vote for Stein is a vote for Trump. I think we need to go after her ON THE MERITS. I would love to see an outside group run ads against her.
Maybe we could take a stab at making some YouTube ads and seeing if any go viral. If anyone has any ideas I might be able to do the video editing.
