Quote by: Suburbanite  Nader has proven he doesnt EVER intend on winning because he runs in the least opportune elections. He wouldve had a MUCH MUCH better chance against Kerry, but the GOP didn't need back-up taking down Kerry. He could've ran WITH al gore, instead of against him.
look at Nader's record and who he likes to fuck over:
1st Al Gore, the MOST environmental presidential candidate in our history. You'd think the Green Party would have supported him.
2nd Obama, a president, again who is pro-green and truly defies the status quo of american politics
and yet, the ONE person he couldve beaten, he chose not to run against, and thats Kerry, the weakest candidate in my history on this earth. He was SILENT! No Nader when the GOP is going to win, Nader when they aren't.
I've never voted main-stream in my life until this election, and ive lsot all respect for nader and the green party and i am personally going to take it upon myself to insult them as often as possible. |
Uh, your entire post is based on a falsehood.
Ralph Nader DID run against Kerry.
pwned.

And I bet most of you who think it is super-duper would just luuuuuv it when actual Communists and actual Socialists and actual Neo-Nazi groups get to drive the agenda in this country because they are needed in coalition governments. Why do you think the situation in Israel is so screwed up? Most of the country does not support the settlement policies, but over and over again, the radicals get to drive that agenda, all because someone needs their 5 % to form that block to have their 38 % beat the other major party's 39%. I'll take the problems of a 2 party system any day, thanks. |
You don't get it... when the federal government does things, thats bad. The federal government should get as little done as possible. If having 50 parties grinds it to a halt, all the better. Every time they do something I lose either money or freedom.
