Jill Stein announced her second Green Party presidential candidacy on Democracy Now! Monday, telling host Amy Goodman, “I’m running with the only national party that does not take corporate funding. That is the Green Party. And it’s a great honor to be here at Democracy Now! to announce that I am running for president of the United States.”
Stein will be kicking off her campaign at the National Press Club in Washington this afternoon. I will post updates from the event.
>Asked if she can win, Stein says Greens “win” by getting as far as possible in next election; mentions lawsuit against CPD.
Good answer. She is in it to win hearts and minds and change the direction of the dialogue.
Thanks for the liveblog!
