I want to learn more about her/Green Party's theory of change & try to understand if they've learned from past campaigns.

Ask her why she chose her VP and if she agrees with his recent sinophobic tirade against "the left" as if we're an external group he doesn't belong to: https://hexbear.net/post/3714012

If my choice of protest vote is between principled socialists and someone who allies with a racist liberal right out of the gate, there isn't a functional reason to vote for Greens over PSL short of encouraging more capitulation to the right. The whole point of that protest vote is to say there's a basic standard of not being right-wing.

If you want an intro to the question like people always do when asking politicians questions you could mention that China has been leading the world in green energy production
