Ralph Nader Responds to Obama He Says One Thing and Does Another"
Responding to President Obama, longtime consumer advocate and former presidential candidate Ralph Nader says Obama’s criticism of income inequality and Wall Street excess fail to live up to his record in office. "[Obama] says one thing and does another," Nader says. "Where has he been for over three years? He’s had the Justice Department.
On foreign policy, Nader says, "I think his lawless militarism was truly astonishing. [Obama] was very committed to projecting the American empire, in Obama terms."
Gee, do you think Nader supports Romney? Nah, not really.
Quote:
Nader: Obama is a ‘war criminal’ but Romney would be worse
Nader added that Obama’s intellect and experience helped legitimize Bush’s “lawless war-mongering and militarism,” making him a “more effective evil” than Romney. However, he warned that the former Massachusetts governor is not to be trifled with either, calling him the greater of the two evils and warning that he’s “basically a corporation running for president masquerading as a human being.”
Romney, like Obama, says he favors using drone strikes instead of putting soldiers on the ground. He also suggested during a Republican primary debate that Pakistanis are actually “comfortable” with them. Former Romney surrogate Tim Pawlenty also announced last June that a President Romney would be more fervent in his use of drones than Obama, saying the current administration has not gone “far enough.”
I actually like Nader and he obviously is not in favor of The Military Industrial Complex, which is even more reason to like him. My only issue with Nader is the fact that he never ran a campaign seriously enough to become a candidate. I believe if he did, he would have had a good shot at wiinning. I would have voted for Nader.
