Thought it would be fun to see which one of the two "lesser" candidates are preferred by people on here. Let's say that, for some reason, Gary Johnson and Jill Stein are suddenly the only two presidential candidates left- and, to many, this is an immense relief. Which would you choose?

Stein? I think? I saw Gary Johnson on TV once and he rubbed me the wrong way.

I love how just because Johnson doesn't know what something is that automatically makes him bad? just saying, in the past, when presidents were getting elected, it was the common people the elected. If you had political experience, it was frowned upon for you to run for president. tbh I think it should go back to that.

Uneducated people have the right to run for president, but whether they get elected is a different story. The only reason Trump and Hillary are still in the race is because they have money. If they didn't, they wouldn't be able to keep campaigning. It's not really fair, honestly, but that's the way our corrupted system works. Arguably, all of the candidates don't understand the conflict, Hillary especially. But that's a whole other story lol

But that's a whole other story lol i cant tell if your paragraph is admitting tht gary and jill are unintelligent or if the paragraph itself is just irrelevant. i don't understand how ppl can say clinton has no understanding of conflict. she was literally the secretary of state and already debated many of our (assuming your from the us, as most non US countries minus Russia are intelligent enough to view the terrible effects a trump presidency would have the world) opposing global leaders. ppl like to blame her for no doing enough to stop these things but she did all she could given her resources. many of these events like the rise of radicalism would have happened to an even greater extent if it was viewed with opposing party policies. you can say in hindsight "oh lol i would have stopped ISIS" but i could say that also and nobody could fact check me. hillarys understanding of global events is unparalleled by bernie, trump, or any other nominee. this was mainly written assuming you would vote for trump. if ur not im sorry but please understand that whether you like clinton or not a vote against hillary is a vote for trump.

Her stance on a lot of the radicalism is just very concerning to me. Her background with really sketchy stuff is just too much for me to trust her, you know? At least Trump just says stupid stuff lol. Not saying I agree with most of the things he says, but to me, someone sneaky and conniving is more dangerous than someone who is blunt and impulsive. I just feel like she would contribute more to the problem by trying to not hurt everyone's feelings than actually doing anything. I'm not really sure who I'm voting for at this point. Not Hillary at all, but I'm not happy about the others. I may just not vote. idk

If you had political experience, it was frowned upon for you to run for president. tbh I think it should go back to that. when johnson doesn't know such a major city thats part of such a major conflict, you gotta wonder what else he doesn't know ? i never said he was "bad" but bro. look around. the dude is clueless. also im sorry but if u think we ought to go back to the days where ur redneck neighbor was a more desirable choice than someone with experience and knowledge in the field they're wanting to work in then man i dont know what to tell u. but hey maybe kanye west WOULD make a great president right ?
