Ralph Nader for President

[merrill]

In the last 30 years he has held no political office.

Experienced politicians in too many cases know all about corrupt special interest campaign money.

In the last 30 years those experienced republicans have
sent the economy down the tubes twice that required trillion dollar bailouts.

Why does one need to have held a political office? This man likely knows more about government than many elected officials.

Knows campaign finance like the back of his hand.

This NOT republican party is anything BUT fiscally conservative and certainly not prudent.( spent $53 million tax dollars to nail Clinton on a blow job).

Ralph Nader is fiscally prudent and socially responsible.

I thought he already tossed in with Ron Paul, or am I mistaken?

Corporate Crime

The US needs to crackdown on corporate crime, fraud and abuse that have just in the last four years looted and drained trillions of dollars from workers, investors, pension holders and consumers.

Among the reforms needed are resources to prosecute and convict the corporate executive crooks and to democratize corporate governance so shareholders have real power; pay back ill-gotten gains; rein in executive pay; and enact corporate sunshine laws, among others. Continue reading ...

Nader and Ron Paul are gay lovers who keep getting pestered by Ross Perot for a three-way.

Just the thought of that makes me want to iron everything I own.

A Federal Budget that Puts Human Needs Before Corporate Greed and Militarism

The United States needs a redirected federal budget that adequately funds crucial priorities like infrastructure, transit and other public works, schools, clinics, libraries, forests, parks, sustainable energy and pollution controls.

The budget should move away from the deeply documented and criticized (by the US General Accounting Office, retired Admirals and Generals and others) wasteful, redundant "military industrial complex" as President Eisenhower called it, as well as corporate welfare and tax cuts for the wealthy that expand the divide between the luxuries of the rich and the necessities of the poor and middle class.

Electoral Reform

Our democracy is in a descending crisis. Voter turnout is among the lowest in the western world, and America ranks in the bottom three of countries that hold free elections.

The reasons for this democracy crisis are many: Redistricting ensures very few incumbents are at risk in one-party districts, and paperless voting machines call into question whether every vote is being counted. Barriers to full participation of candidates proliferate, making it very obstructive for third party and Independent candidates to run.

These problems silence alternative viewpoints and decrease voter confidence. Continue reading ...

How can people be blaming Nader for a poorly run Gore campaign?

How about the voting machine hack job by Diebold who provided the voting machines?

The democrats like the republicans chose NOT to let Nader participate in the debates yet too many democrats still blame Nader.... hmmmmmm

 

[merrill]

BTW Ralph Nader is the most Fiiscally Conservative person of all thus far

 

[merrill]

The Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) began in 1987 by the Democratic and Republican parties to establish the way that presidential election debates are run between candidates for President of the United States.

The Commission is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) corporation as defined by Federal US tax laws, whose debates are sponsored by private contributions from foundations and corporations.

The above seems a little too corrupt for my blood! Get rid of this committee and bring back the League of Women Voters!

Nader hates Democrats. We hate him too now, he just tries to split the Democratic vote just like Ron Paul always tries to split the Republican vote. What kind of non committal person supports either one of these candidates.

Nader should challenge Obama for the Democratic Nomination and when he loses he should run third party.

 

[gallantwarrior]

My business partner votes for Nader every election, even if he has to write-in his name.

Will you lefties ever quit whining? Barney Frank told Americans that Fannie Mae was doing fine when it was on the verge of collapse under his watch. Was he just stoopid or was he hatching the biggest October surprise in history? Why did Barry hire Frank Raines who allegedly cooked the books as CEO of Fannie and walked away with 90 Million for three years work? Why did Barry hire Eric Holder who worked out the deal to pardon the worst corporate pirate in history (at that time) in exchange for a Million dollar payoff to Clinton's library? Enron flurished during Clinton's administration while Holder was writing big dumb Janet Reno's speeches. Now we have a Attorney General who thought it was a good idea to ship over 3,000 illegal weapons to Mexico.

He got 200k in Florida- that's how we got the catastrophe...

Nader doesn't have that much support. He was at 1% when he tried to become a factor back when Kerry/Bush were running.

What a waste.
