Jill Stein turns me off, but the Green Party has a platform that I like, and they are right (or rather left) on many issues, especially environmental, peace, social justice..... more here: http://www.gp.org/platform

However, I don't want to throw away my vote so I'm voting with the Democratic Party.

I think the country is going toward what the Green party stands for, but it's going to take time. Meanwhile, the Dems are the best we have right now, IMO.

It's an insane position, and everyone knows, so each side tries to pin it to the other. Politics as usual.

Let's face it, any non-economic policy could theoretically be called either "left" or "right" with a semi-convincing argument. It all depends on perspective.

Because Republicans have become the anti-science and pro-conspiracy theories party.

On global warming but certainly not on things like GMO's.

I'd say she's so far left that she's wrong on most issues.

There are anti-vax people on both sides of the political spectrum, it's neither a right wing nor left wing issue.  Right wingers may have religious or 'small government' objections to mandatory vaccines, while left wingers may be concerned about big pharma pushing drugs on people for $$$.

Let's face it, any non-economic policy could theoretically be called either "left" or "right" with a semi-convincing argument. It all depends on perspective.

This is correct, though there is also a spectrum as it relates to diversity issues and seeking policies that advance the interests and POV of women, minorities, and the LGBT community v. those that advocate for issues from a "neutral" white straight male perspective.

This even applies to some economic policies. Protectionism vs. free trade, for example.

Well, there is a theory, Horseshoe theory where the Far-Left and Far-Right and actually closer than left va right. To ask, is North Korea a Communist dictatorship with Fascist flavours or a Fascist dictatorship with Conmunist flavours?

Government mandating that people get vaccinated = big government.

Right-wing is generally known for being against big government.

I don't completely reject Horseshoe Theory, but I don't think it's applicable here.
