He officially announced this morning.
Nader's time passed years ago.
nader's time never came
he serves only to steal votes
Nadar is the secret weapon of the Republicans. He is intentially planted to steal away votes from Democrats thus ensuring a Republican victory.
I think I read somewhere that Cynthia McKinney is running on the Green Party ticket.
Nader/McKinney08!!!
Is this NAders Nadir? Is this the end of Ricco?
I recently watched "An Unreasonable Man", a documentary about Nader. He did some great things for the American consumer and has certainly saved many lives in the process, but I think his "Evangelism" is making him lose all perspective. He is a very odd man on many levels. Even if he magically found himself in The White House, I think the country would come to stand still because the Senate and Congress would never walk away from their lobbyist loyalties for the sake of Nader's idealism. It just seems like a waste of his energies and our attention.
I'm just listening to an interview with him on CBC radio. He's certainly got a number of very good points to make.
I wish the 'threat' of him running had moved at least one viable Dem candidate to move closer to the political centre.
Right, right and not viable. I can't imagine what I'd do if I had to vote in the U.S.
I just read the definition of the word "scapegoat", and there's a picture of Ralph Nader right there next to it. (seriously!)
