29. Nader blasts both sides equally,
And if you ever actually read some of his work you would realize that. Nader is and has been, in many ways, the conscience of our political process. Sadly it seems that more people would rather demonize him than follow his advice.

But it is becoming more and more obvious to an increasing number of people that we're living under the two party/same corporate master system of government. Writers from Chomsky to Nader to Zinn, along with many millions of other ordinary people speak and write of this very problem. Are you going to demonize all those people also, or will you wake up and look around, realize what the problem is and start doing something about it? Hint for you, a find place to start would be with publicly financed election campaigns.

But hey, I realize that it is much easier to demonize a scapegoat that do the hard work of fixing our party and our political system. So hey, stay there in your cocoon, we'll do the heavy lifting for you until you decide to wake the fuck up.
