So, why didn't Nader run in 2004? Or should I say Nader(R)?

[Democrats_win]

No decent person would AGAIN try to help the party of warmongers and thieves retain the presidency! Nader(R) will soon be the most hated person on earth along with Bush/Cheney. The blood of 9/11 victims, Iraqis, and Afghans are on his hands too.

1. He did. And was a non-factor

[Alexander]

2. He did. He got 0.38% of the vote.

I'm not worried about him.

3. The man is not normal....he is a POS.....

4. why didn't Nader run in 2004?

Because Bush, as an incumbent President, didnt need the help against Kerry.

Nader is to Democrats what Perot was to the GOP in the 90's.

I wish someone with the necessary resources would investigate who is funneling Nader the money to run for President.

I bet theres a wealthy (R) in there somewhere.

5. More evidence that Nader is irrelevant.

He ran, you didn't notice.

[Swamp Rat]

10. LOL!

:rofl:

[TahitiNut]

11. That doesn't mean he didn't "sap our vital juices!!"

:eyes: "Irrelevant" stll makes a good whipping boy. Easier than actually putting impeachment on the table, huh?

[zbdent]

6. He should be referred to as Nade(R) ...

[checks-n-balances]

8. Thanks; from now on, in my writing he'll be Nade(R)

Gets the point across succinctly!:evilgrin:

[BlueJazz]

7. I happen to actually like Nader's ideas...but...damn...I wish to hell that...

...he would have just run/ran on the Democratic ticket.

His ideas about Health care are fine
Doing away with Lobbyists is fine
His ideas on the debt, environment and "Fair wages" is great,,,

Again..I wish he wasn't such a Nut though...

[TahitiNut]

12. (Ahem) Being a "Nut" is a Good Thing.

[BlueJazz]

19. I'm one also...and even better:: I'm Bi-Polar so the Phrase

"Sometimes you feel like a Nut..Sometimes you don't" really is true. :)

9. Nadar tried in 2000. Guess he saw the damage done and stayed away in 2004.

He will always be used like a John McCain type boob. Pie in the face material irrelevancy.

[Garbo 2004]

13. Nader did run for Pres in 2004. n/t

[Disturbed]

14. Most "Progressives" agree with his concepts & ideas but they

just don't like him, personally. He is considered a Spoiler by most Dems & they loath him for being a small part of the Gore fiasco of 2000. The Electoral System is rigged & won't change anytime soon.

If Nader was actually serious he would have thrown his hat into the Dem ring a year ago. How different are his policies compared to John Edwards policies?

[Garbo 2004]

18. The Green Party wouldn't have anything to do with Nader in 2004. n/t

[MiniMe]

15. The republicans funded him in 2004 and are probably funding him now.

You would think he would get a clue about that.

[Yavin4]

16. Don't Forget The Katrina Victims

They're on Nader's hands as well.

[Joe Chi Minh]

17. It's laughable when you compare the size of his base with those of the trusted

Democratic progressives, Edwards and Kuchinich.

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

20. Hillary's more of an (R) than Nader is

agree or disagree with his running, thinking Ralph is a Republican is just fuckin' stupid.

[JerseygirlCT]

21. LOL. He did

He just got the attention he deserves: very little.
