sorry, we had a mishap with the mic during beginning of the Q&A, and had to go to plan b - getting the audio off the 2nd camera. Hopefully its clear enough to understand. - Karen, the Nader Team

Ralph Nader is sooo underestimated.

[couragetolive]

What would you rather have a president who gives his two dollar bill to a junior high student or a president who gives your $700 billion dollars to his corporate buddies?

That's cool. Everyone seems to have been listening. I'll bet you anyhting some kids went home really energized about Ralph only to get shot down & discouraged by their broken, narrowminded parents.
