Hi Jason!

Your voice literally has the ability to make me laugh no matter what you say. You could literally be reading Schindler's List in one of your character's voices and I'd laugh my butt off.

Would you ever consider doing a series where you read dramatic poetry or stories in the voices of your characters? Like the marshmallow people reading I dunno war and peace or some shit? Or Charlie reading part of "My Immortal" and just being completely weirded out.

Anyways, thanks for coming on over and congratulations on achieving your kickstarter goal!

Holy shit that seems pretty scummy. I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say that we really appreciate the answer

But for me, now I really want to know why they would think that kicking off one of the essential founders, and the literal designer of their website that brought them all this success would even be a remotely decent idea.

Damn... Well hopefully you're doing alright. You've got your last nerds on earth, you got a twitch stream, and I heard you got a girlfriend! So hopefully that means you're doing well in life.

Dr. Stein, welcome back to Reddit! Truly appreciate you taking the time to do this today!

For the past two months, I have genuinely been flipping back and forth between you and Secretary Clinton. Ask me a week ago and I'm with Hillary, ask me this week I'm with you, etc. Etc.

One thing I truly appreciate about you is that you take every scandal and you address it head-on. Anti-vax smears? Your campaign puts that to rest. John Oliver smear? Your campaign tears into him. The story this past week where we found out you had investments in the very corporations you were fighting against? Your campaign put out a clear cut rational explanation that really put my mind at ease.

I'm sorry if this comes off as gushing. These are just things I always wished I could say but didn't have a chance before. Your foreign policy with the Peace Offensive is honestly one of the best foreign policy strategies I've ever seen in a candidate, I love the concept of the Green New Deal, and I can't say enough about how inspiring it was seeing you tag that bulldozer at Standing Rock while everyone else was letting those atrocities slide.

You truly are an inspiring candidate, and at this point I feel like I can be confident that you'll receive my vote, but there are just a few questions I have left.

  1. One thing I loved about Hillary is that she's championing an issue that no other candidate is. How small industrial businesses get devastated when they try and complete a job for a big company. My brother-in-law has a concrete business and refuses to take jobs for big companies because those companies have a strong tendency to not pay. And my uncle had a painting business for 20 years, he took a job doing the inside of the biggest bank in town, was a $40,000 job for him. The bank wound up not paying and threatening that if my Uncle took this to court, they had the legal resources to draw the case out for years... My uncle is a cook at the airport now. So my question having said that is this: How are you going to make these companies pay? I've heard a substantial part where you're going to rail against Wall Street, but do you have any plans in mind to help those small business owners?

And my last question is one of leadership. Right before the end of the Democratic Primaries, you had invited Bernie Sanders, who was absolutely committed to the Democrats at this point, to not only join you in the Green Party, but take your spot as the Green Party nominee. If you were willing to give up the Green Party to what could've been your political opponent, then how can I trust that a Stein presidency won't just give it up to Bernie and the Democrats when you're elected? I also have to put out it hurts seeing you hail Bernie as am absolute saint when he has just about the same foreign policy ideas as Clinton or Obama, but is just more sheepish about it.

So Dr. Stein, thank you again for doing this. Look forward to your next Fireside Chat, and appreciate the hard work you and Dr. Baraka have put into this campaign. =)
