The Green Party is campaigning in Michigan to bring awareness to a third party option for President.

Ajamu Baraka is running for Vice President alongside Doctor Jill Stein. He made a campaign stop at Wayne State University Tuesday.

Baraka says now is a critical time for the Green Party to campaign aggressively.

“When do we draw a line in the sand and build a real alternative to corporate power? When do we oppose the agenda and the interest of the one percent? 2016 is the time to go ahead and make that change,” Baraka says.

Baraka says polls show that citizens are disgusted with both major party options for president.

He says Americans should not be forced to choose the lesser of two evils when voting for the leader of the country.
