Exactly. I mean why did Ron Paul run? Or any of the other candidates that have dropped out who didn't have a snow ball's chance in hell to win their party's nomination.
Also would Nader have affected the electoral college vote that much--if at all--in that election? That's is what did Gore in.
BTW, how many of you who are down on him know his history of consumer advocacy? Heck there was a time you mentioned his name and the corporate giants shook in their boots. He has always been for the "little people" consumers who had no voice. In fact he is the reason some of you enjoy the privileges you have as consumers today. He was a pre-Michael Moore.
Don't get me wrong--I am not supporting his run. I am just concerned about folx jumping on bandwagons without any proof. And I do hope that the Dem nominee will hear whatever issues Nader brings to the table.
