Would you vote for Nader? I wouldn't because I don't think he would have a chance to win.
John
News, WASHINGTON - Ralph Nader said Sunday he will run for president as a third-party candidate, criticizing the top White House contenders as too close to big business and pledging to repeat a bid that will "shift the power from the few to the many."
I don't vote, because I am a legal resident, not a citizen. My husband however has voted for Nader in the past, and will vote for him again. Given that we live in "blue states" the "spoiler" doesn't apply... but most likely he would vote for him in any case because he simply isn't happy with the democrats.
Yes! Damn right Nader threw it to Bush in 2000. Too bad I voted for Gore in California (where it wouldn't have made a difference, anyway). Yep, we also got 9-11 & Iraq because Gore lost, because of Nader. Gore could have precluded the whole Nader scenario by paying more than token interest to the Nader voters' interests. Gore went too far to the center, even though I did vote for him. Guess what? I'm voting for Nader in 2008, in Texas (where, alas, it again won't matter). Yep! I've pulled the pin out of the Democratic grenade, and it's ticking... I'm going down with the ship, and will do all I can to abandon the Democratic party, ensuring Republican victories forevermore, until such time as the Democrats embrace FDR's policies again. I voted Democrat in 1984, 1988, 1992, 1996, 2000, & 2004, and got the same ol' tired stuff...no delivery on my policy concerns. Well, guess what? No more, Kimosabe! If I can't get my agenda in, you're not gonna get yours in either, so it's mutually assured destruction--and Republican victories--until youse all start listening to our concerns. Buyah! Recognize! God Bless our troops!

Reason: prior omission/emphasis
voting for Nader is what it has always has been, a wasted vote but go ahead and by the way he needs to get on the ballot in all 50 states. Nader should stick to what he knows best which is consumer protection.
