Att USA skulle bli bättre med Clinton än med Trump tycks givet, men om världen skulle bli bättre är allt annat än säkert. Clinton är sannerligen ingen frälsning. Patrick Caddell, som arbetar med bland annat president Jimmy Carter och flera radikala demokratiska presidentkandidater, har uttryckt att Demokraternas val av Clinton som sin kandidat kan leda till genombrott för Jill Stein.
Senaste kändis som markerat att hen tänker rösta på Stein istället för Clinton är Susan Saradon - Oscarvinnare 1996, bästa kvinnliga huvudroll i filmen Dead man walking. Susan Saradon har skrivit ett öppet brev till Stein:
Dear Jill and team,
I've been waiting for any indication that Hillary
Clinton's position on the issues that are most urgent to me, has
changed. But ...
-
She does not support the $15 minimum wage.
-
She shows no support for legalizing marijuana.
-
She supports TPP.
-
She has sold fracking and Monsanto.
-
She supports offshore drilling.
-
She has no position on the Dakota Access Pipeline.
-
She opposes the labeling of GMOs.
-
She opposes the breakup of big banks.
-
She takes lobbyists' money for campaigning.
-
She opposes a binding climate treaty.
-
She supports unconditional military aid to Israel.
I'm therefore very happy to endorse Jill Stein for the presidency because she does stand for everything I believe in.
It's clear a third party is necessary and viable at this time. And this is the first step in accomplishing this end.
Fear of Donald Trump is not enough for me to support Clinton, with her record of corruption.
Now that Trump is self-destructing, I feel even those in swing states have the opportunity to vote their conscience.
Susan Sarandon
