13. Personally, I disagree with what he just said about Israel/Palestine

I don't think Israel is above criticism by any means, but he was criticizing Obama for not being "pro-Palestinian". Personally, I don't want a president who is "pro-Palestinian". I know that's at odds with a lot of posters here, and I don't want to start a war about it. But that is one of the reasons I would not vote for Nader even if I could do so without him being a spoiler (such as in an Instant Runoff system, which I support).

His record on labor is also less than stellar...he is calling for a repeal of Taft-Hartley now, but when he ran US PIRG, he was a union buster.
