Stein said the Green Party is more in-sync with the sweeping changes Sanders, a self-described Democratic socialist, and his supporters crave.

“I think you could say the Green Party itself is Bernie Sanders,” she told host Alisyn Camerota. "I’m not unique in the Green Party. I’m basically inside of a revolutionary party that supports this agenda and is not working like the Democratic Party to basically bury that agenda.”

Stein also said she has crafted a spending plan for many of Sanders’s policies, including free tuition for public college students.
