Tell Me Why I Shouldn't Vote For Jill Stein

Doesn't that insinuate I will?

If you believe she is the best candidate for this country you should vote for her and maybe even try to raise awareness for her/her party. Seeking reasons to not vote for her is what I was replying to. Looking for reasons to vote for a person, not vote against or not vote for a person would probably help our political system a lot.
 
It's easy to miss things when there's so much drama and incitement on all fronts.

Perhaps the title could have been "convince why I should vote for ______________"?

I can't decide between Johnson and Stein.

Just because Stein has big ideas and shots for the stars isn't reason to disqualify her.
I like the idea of somebody who wants to make radical changes. We need radical changes.

And yes - some of it wouldn't fly in a hurricane, but lets look at the record the Reps and Dems have. Let's look at 17 trillion dollars in debt to start.
How's that flying with all you people who want to vote Rep or Dem?
How's the NDAA look to you all?
The wasteful war on drugs?

"Radical change" can be good or bad. Her policies are bad. They grossly overextend the influence of government such that the populace would be essentially crippled by their dependence on Big Brother. That isn't even a potential risk of her policies, it's the most likely outcome. That alone makes her "radical change" inappropriate and reckless. And, quite frankly, it makes her seem grossly incapable of reasonable, rational leadership.
