Presidential hopeful Jill Stein is looking for a running mate.
The Green Party representative mentioned in an interview with digBoston that she’s considered asking Immortal Technique to run alongside her in the 2016 Presidential election.
“He’s a friend, but I don’t think he was born in the United States, so he can’t do it,” she told the Boston-based news site. “I have spoken with him though. I love Immortal Technique. He has great ideas—we need to hear from more people like him.”
Although Immortal Technique meets most of the requirements to run (at least 35 years old, inhabitant of the United States for at least 14 years), he is not a natural born citizen of the U.S. He was born in Lima, Peru.
Stein ran for office during the 2012 election, choosing anti-poverty activist Cheri Honkala as her running mate for the Green Vice-Presidential nomination.

Waste of time. Even if Immortal was accepted to run, and people overlooked his criminal record, and overlooked his violent/rebel music, what party is this? Who?
that’s the problem. people dont even know there’s an option beyond the 2 parties
Criminal Record? Nixon? Clinton? Bush? Obama? Are you kidding me. You mean to tell me he’s more of a criminal than them. Because he beat the shit out of people 15 years ago in some closed case? C’mon the guy is smart, he knows a lot about history. He just could not be on TV. Cmon way too much truth for millions of people. I’ve never seen any rapper let alone a politician tell it like it is like Tech
Then he should run for congress. He’s smart and he knows whats up
Immortal knows what’s up. I was just listening to “the poverty of philosophy” joint and alot of what he says is going on. If he can’t run for president he should at least have his own show dude is smart as hell. I wish these kids would listen more to him and others who try to educate instead of just entertain maybe they’d wake up and realize what’s really going on in our fucked up society.
Wasn’t Ted Cruz born in Canada?
Green or Libertarian only way to go. .
Down with the 2 party system
