Yeah well.. him and all the current president candidates and current president need to find a nice deep hole to go away in.

I feel like I'm voting between retardest and retardest in this (and the past) election.

He sucks, but he serves an important purpose, to suck away a very important weak-minded component of the DNC electorate.  :)

Coulda swore it was the DNC that lost votes, i.e. Gore would be our prez now if it weren't for the Greens.

That's your opinion.  I have respect for Nader, though I disagree with some of his ideas, far as method goes.  Suppose it's a 70s thing.  He made manufacturers toe the line with quality control, and must have done some good, though he was a political figure during my formative years.  I remember people talking about Nader all the time, with some degree of reverence.  They had enough respect for Nader to make sure they didn't do anything wrong in the workplace.

Did Nader start OSHA?  I know he was instrumental in the investigations of automobile safety...that's what I remember most.  Back then he was a cool dude, far as we were concerned.

Of course back then, I was 16 and impressionable.  Nader was a folk hero back in those days.  He stood up to car manufacturers, and imo did some good.

I support Nader and the hundreds of votes he will take from Edwards/Kerry.

As I recall, many people who voted for Nader said that if he wasn't running, they would have voted for Gore.  I hope the republican party sent him a 'Thank You' gift basket.

The poster who suggested that Nader inconvenienced Bush in the 2000 election is terribly out of touch.

2 million people or so voted for Nader.  This happened mostly in key areas.  Even 1 person's vote can change 10+ electoral votes.
