The Democratic Party is very afraid of having competition that is actually unmuzzled and that can tell the truth, which is why they keep this fear voting system in place.

The Green Party provides the infrastructure, kind of the culture of watchdogging the electoral bureaucracy, and how you participate, how you get on the ballot, stuff like that which is very difficult to do unless you have billions of dollars.

I used to practice clinical medicine. Now I practice political medicine, because it's the mother of all illnesses.

Where the states are dead set on suppressing political opposition, it's very hard to overcome that.

I think public health is kind of in a very sad state of affairs here in this country.

I'm a medical doctor by training. I'm a physician, not a politician. And I'm in this as a mother on fire. You could say, very concerned about our younger generation that does not have the jobs they need to get themselves out of the debt that they're in. And have the full weight of the climate crisis exploding on them - on their watch.

I mean, I really loved the mix of personal health and, kind of, community health and justice, and I really saw how they were inseparable.
