Democrats and Republicans are
controlled by banks, oil giants, insurance companies and war
profiteers, says Green Party presidential candidate, Dr. Jill Stein.
Her party, she claims, gets no money from corporations and has
liberty to really address problems.
As the two major US political
parties have officially selected their nominees for president, Chris
Hedges, host of RT’s On Contact program, discussed with the Green
Party candidate for president, Dr. Jill Stein, what could be an
alternative way forward.
According to Dr Stein, in the
current presidential race, the American public is “clamoring for
something else at unprecedented levels”.
“People have rejected not
only both of these parties, which are minority parties by actual
polling…Their candidates are running at record levels, all time
highest for people disliking the Democratic and Republican
candidates,” she said.
“The American people and the
people all over the world are being thrown under the bus by this
political system…in which both parties are basically funded by and
controlled by predatory banks, by fossil-fuel giants, by
war-profiteers, the health insurance industry - the usual suspects
who are calling the shots from behind the closed doors,” Stein
says.
Stein says that since her campaign
and the Green Party “are the only candidates and party”
that do not take money from corporations and lobbyists, and do not
have super PACs, they have “the liberty to address the crises”
that the US people are facing.
