Yeah right. I'm going to assume Ralph does not support OWS. I'm also going to assume he's out of touch with pretty much everyone rich and poor. It's fun to imagine someone else using THEIR money for change, but hey don't look at me. He could match what OWS has and would not know it. I just lost the last of my respect for the man. What planet for what leadership roll was he running for?
would anyone vote for more money for endless wars? yes. not me but my best friend is a big fan of nader and she had her son join the navy. 10 years after 911 -- no end to the bullshit.
"The Kennedy myth is a bit like America's Hamlet story," he says.
"Kennedy is the king who was murdered. In Hamlet, of course, the false king was also the murderer, and even Stone does not go as far as some others, like Paul Kangas, who traces a CIA plot from the Bay of Pigs, to Dallas, to Watergate, to George HW Bush."

Americans have hadseveral chances to wake up and elect a true patriot and a man truly for We the People, instead of just another corporate-owned robot. That man is Ralph Nader. Yet they ignore him and elect the war profiteers and corporatists who are taking us down the road to ruin and fascism.
As a German I do not claim to have a comprehensive overlook about American politics, but Ralph Nader is one of the very few American politician that do not trigger any feeling of contempt in me! I wonder whether Obama is spineless or just a very good actor...
@KripkeSaul Absolutely my sentiments as a German. I do consider myself, however, a cosmopolitan. Nader represents all the dissent the US is showing now in one person, yet he does not appear publicly in favor of Occupy WallStreet AND the TeaParty. While the two groups seem different they do address the same issues. The TeaParty is definitely less intellectually motivated.
While Obama and McCain are still debating how many troops to send into the fire and how many Americans should be denied health care, Nader is still the only humanist looking out for our benefit.
Nader never wanted to be a "politician" and sell out to special interests and partys that dictate who runs and who wins.
He's had his hands full running or sheppharding numerous NGOs that are steering US policies toward Humanism, Peace and social and environmental Justice.
He ran as Pres merely to pressure Dem Candidates to veer back toward the left and toward the peoples wishes
The DNC now frames any competitor negatively as 'spoiler', just to knee-cap them at the gate.
Point taken about Feingold and Sanders -Rare exceptions allowed to exist in the tempest of hubris
Nader does pave the way for progressive voices in the Dem pty like Kucinich, who bring out truly Humanist agendas, win huge popularity early in the primaries and are subsequently asked fewer questions close to the primary and finally are booted from the TV altogether despite 45-60% ratings in majority public polls
So we get to feel good about electing a Black (Corporatist) for a change
The polls, just like current news articles were here today gone tomorrow. I guess CNN, ABC, Gallup etc don't want to clutter the internet up with old polls and junk like that. Noble. My cohorts from the campaign did get screen captures of each. They are the real deal.
The Amer people are quite to blame. There malaise, lethargy and ignorance are driven by advertising, education etc, but can be shaken off. So the people AND corps are guilty. It's a win win for Greed, hubris & slavery
nice novel... sounds like the one about "change" lol

Ralph Nader and Senator Bernie Sanders are the only two nationally-involved American politicians who are worth a damn.

The REAL question is WHY HAVEN'T the super rich done SHIT to move this country in a progressive direction?
The answer is real simple.
THEY DON'T GIVE A SHIT!
If we want progress, we're going to have to make it by ourselves because no one else is going to do it for us!!!!!
DUH!!!!!
