What makes you think a vote for Nader is a vote taken from the democrats? Most people that vote for Nader wouldn't vote Dem or Republican. The day when we rid ourselves of the electoral college there will be a better choice than Red or Blue. This guy scares the hell out of the stutus quo because he's not bought and paid for. The blatant disregard for the people in THIS country is the current administrations' legacy. It's time for a change and there is a better way than the lessor of two evils.
ARRRRRRRRG!!! Enough is enough with this stupid myth about Nader costing Gore his presidency, Gore could have accepted Nader conceding his votes making Nader Minister of Labor, BUT THE DEMOCRATS DIDN'T WANT TO HAVE TO COMPETE WITH NADER, OTHER GREENS AS WELL AS ANY
Nader has every right to run for whatever office he desires. Half the people don't even know who he is, the other half thinks he's an idiot. I'm sure if he were a charismatic, intelligent man, he would join one of the two major parties and increase his chance of winning. Obviously he thinks he has good chances running as a third party candidate and that makes him an idiot. This is America, if you want to achieve something in politics, you gotta be either a Democrat or a Republican.
I hate Nader so much. He siphons democratic votes. A vote for Nader/ Libertarians is throwing your vote away! Be realistic people, don't make voting a joke. I mean, it makes sence if you don't like either Democratic or Republican canidates so you vote for someone else, but it's just dissapointing to think that people will vote for these guys with the thought of them actually winning. MAKE YOUR VOTE COUNT AND VOTE DEMOCRAT/REPUBLICAN!!!
But this same vein of thought is the reason that we have this fruitless Republican/Democrat feud: Because people are too afraid to tell these two offending parties where to stick it by voting Independent, Libertarian, Green....
The Republicans and the Democrats are resting comfortably on their laurels because they know that we the people think there are only two choices. Our nation needs to change this. But how?
The day we get a Third Party candidate in the White House is the day the Republicans and Democrats MIGHT pause their petty Congressional feud long enough to get something good done for the nation. But that's just my opinion.
I love how prejudiced people are about Nader. Let's face it, he couldn't win because he's not white, he just looks white, and that's not good enough for these people.
Actually, to say he "Stole" Votes is an over exaggeration. Mostly Democrats who are unsatisfyed with the Democratic Canidate vote for Nader. He pulled votes away from the Democrats. It's the same for Libertarians and Republicans. And excuse me but it's an unfair statement to say that the Dems didn't try to vote against the invasion when Republicans who support Bush outnumber Democrats. I think we all need to be more informed of all sides of the situation if you don't mind.
Uh, that dosn't make any sence. It's irrelivent to say that Gore stole Votes from Nader. Nader is an alternative Party which has absoultly no chance whatsoever of winning the presidency. Nader took the votes away from the Democrats and will continue to do so untill he reilizes that what he is doing is completly impossible. He is a thorn in America's side for taking balace away from Democracy.
Foo, you've stated your bias by saying you "hate" Nader. What you fail to comprehend is what he stands for and the change that is happening however slow. You want to fall in line and accept the 2 party system ,that's fine but there are many who don't share your view and want change.
That may be a very idealistic way of thinking that everyone is as open and critical to our politcal process as Nader projects himself to be, but I truely think that alternative polictical partys disrupt our political process. It is a very sad thought to say that we only have two choices, but really it seems that the vast majority of Americans are too ignorent to want to change and vote for any other party. But why should you care what I'm saying? I'm no where near the voting age!! ^_^
I don't buy the ignorant American thing- most people here I've met are pretty sharp and want what's best but I would agree that they tend to be lazy when it comes to politics.When you listen to a speech by NaderI would challenge you to find any untruths. Our
Well at times like these, there really shouldn't be people who want to fuck around with our voting system just to be different. It's key that we focus on the main canidates so that all Americans can make informed decisions. Look what happend to our last two elections... wanna know what happend? I think you get the idea.
Times like these? This is exactly the time that we need somebody as head of this country that isn't mentally ill. Americans can make informed decisions on 1, 2, and yes, even 3 possible canidates.What happened to the last two elections was/is the result of a 2 party system-- get the idea?
I get that. But what I'm saying is that I'm tired of all this bullshit surrounding the elections. We need to keep things simple so we wont fuck up and elect someone like Bush again. We have absolutly no idea how Nader will handle this country if he were to win, and that's the same with every canidate which runs. I just think that Nader isn't really taking this seriously, he just wants to be the guy out there who knows he's probably not going to win but he still tries just to make a scene.
Voting for a Communist..... Worthless.

Thank you Nader for bringing about the invasion of iraq!
coldstatic 5 years ago
That's an illogical statement: here's why.
1. He didn't steal votes, he earned every damn one of them by having a better platform than the others.
2. Where were the Dems when it came time to stop the invasion of Iraq? Maybe three Dems in congress voted against it.
3. The war in Iraq is the result of a huge failure by the Legislative and Judicial Branches of the government.
Read the book "Warrior King." Have more educated opinions.
