They don't care who the Green Party candidate is. They care about telling everyone that they're speshul sneauxflakes who don't vote for a major party candidate.

Best line:"Donald Trump is an assault on the senses. Satirist H. L. Mencken could have been talking about Trump when he described the writing of Pres. Warren G. Harding: β€œIt reminds me of a string of wet sponges; it reminds me of tattered washing on the line; it reminds me of stale bean soup, of college yells, of dogs barking idiotically through endless nights. It is so bad that a sort of grandeur creeps into it. It drags itself out of the dark abysm of pish, and crawls insanely up the topmost pinnacle of posh. It is rumble and bumble. It is flap and doodle. It is balder and dash.” "

They have nothing on either Clinton. Nada, zip, Sweet Fanny Adams. But by hinting and implying and using ugly nonsense language they keep the base in line. You are not their target audience. You parsed out the fact they are lying like rugs just to be sure the base is angry enough to take the time to vote. Despite Trump demoralizing them by calling the process "rigged".

Stein is still polling at a whopping 2%, so before she can beat any of the mainstream candidates she must first beat the margin of error. So if you keep running into Green Party supporters where you are, just go to a different check-out line at Trader Joe's and you'll never see them again.

exactly, that's why I recommend to you to pack a makeup mirror always in your purse (boy or girl purse) before you say or write anything and take a good look at yourselfand some remedial english wouldn't hurt, learn the diff between their, they're, there, and thar!
