Is Jill Stein qualified to be president of the United States of America?

[IceSpear]

Yes, because she's mean to the shrill bitch on Twitter. What more do you want?

Whoever panders to the anti-vaxx crowd isn't fit to be elected dogcatcher.

When did she do that?

Part of her answer:

You must be logged in to read this quote.

So basically, vaccines don't necessarily cause autism, but they may cause... capitalist sympathies?

Her comment wasn't very long, if you want to read it it wouldn't take very much time out of your day, I promise.

I did read her whole response. I just didn't want to post the whole thing since I know that gets some websites all up in a tizzy.

Based on this quote, Jill seems to be suggesting that, while vaccines are safe, there's a lot of distrust of the medical industry and maybe instead of declaring everyone whose anti-vaccine as literally Hitler, it'd be more productive to see why they're distrustful and address that if we want to actually do something about dropping vaccine rates beyond feeling smug about ourselves. Not sure where she's pandering to anti-vaxxers, especially given that she presents lowering vaccination rates as a problem that should be fixed.

No, demonizing anti-vaxx nutjobs is perfectly acceptable and should be encouraged.
