OBAMABUSH there is no difference when the corporations are the ones with the power... learn to boycott, petition, protest and contact your local politicians/senators in order to sway politics! only the people can change things but it means getting up off your fat asses! and watching independent news reports etc... :) if only the UK had someone like ron paul!

Like the positive, can-do message.

The process building and renewing of a democratic republic has been arduos since the beginning. The vile insults, betrayals, and accusatons heaped on all the founding fathers are legendary. Washington despised the endless feeding at the trough of legislative discord. He was an extraordinary man who knew great deprevation and suffering as well as privlege and wealth. Durring the debate to include a bill of rights in the first draft of the constitution Patrick Henry would draw crowds of thousands

Nader doesn't take into account the rest of the world. The USA is not #1 in the world any more and our future in this country is going to be affected as much by the rest of the world as by ourselves. People in the Third world countries will eventually have power and this will change many parameters. We need to quit gazing at our own navels and join the World community.

I like Ralph; his activism has done much of value for America. But asking the wealthy to pony up money and contribute to some form of greater democracy is naive. Billionaires are billionaires because they are competitive with one another, and they have too much invested in capitalism to give it away to the people. We need a revolution. A real one. Appealing to those who have perpetuated and benefited from the system is ridiculous.

ObamaBush should be a lesson that the vision is more important than the man presenting it. I don't give a shit if Nader was too stubborn in 2000, this is still an inspiring vision.

Thanks, Ralph. I am a Canadian, and I think that you were the only presidential candidate of any worth in the U.S. You would make a great president.
