Nader 2008 !!

I'd definitely be game for a field of 3-5 serious* candidates and getting rid of all the super delegates, electoral college nonsense etc.

One vote per person. Person with the most votes wins. ;-)




*A fringe candidate or one who has a limited appeal/base does not qualify IMO.

The Oscars were on last night. Most of the categories, there are five nominees. Would be pretty boring if it was only two, no?

Yes any white woman or black man off the street would be perfect for to be our next president maybe even a person that can't speak english. Go to merriams and look up logic you aren't using the word correctly. Straight from the Merriam-Webster online site:
Main Entry: 1pro?gres?sive Pronunciation: \prə-ˈgre-siv\ Function: adjective Date: circa 1612
1 a: of, relating to, or characterized by progress b: making use of or interested in new ideas, findings, or opportunities c: of, relating to, or constituting an educational theory marked by emphasis on the individual child, informality of classroom procedure, and encouragement of self-expression
2: of, relating to, or characterized by progression
3: moving forward or onward : advancing
4 a: increasing in extent or severity <a progressive disease> b: increasing in rate as the base increases <a progressive tax>
5often capitalized : of or relating to political Progressives
6: of, relating to, or constituting a verb form that expresses action or state in progress at the time of speaking or a time spoken of
7: of, relating to, or being a multifocal lens with a gradual transition between focal lengths<progressive bifocals>
Where is your definition?
Racial and gender equality are non issues?!?

Please look at def. #3
3: moving forward or onward : advancing
See advancing
intransitive verb
2: to make progress
or as I stated making progress.

(Is English your first language ?)
( I am also assuming you can use a dictionary??)

Again you missed the point.
Equality IS the issue. True equality has nothing to
do with: color, race, gender, or age. Equality means
Those non-issues are just that non-issues. They are
Things that you should not/must not use in picking a leader.

interesting thread here.

peter - I disagree on you about your assessment of clinton being a disaster. those days were the good old days, especially if you compare them to these. just my opinion of course.

Just remember, the really bad stuff that companies like Enron, Worldcom and others did happened in 1998-2000 and the SEC is part of the Executive Branch.

this is true. but not good enough to match a "disasterous" administration such as current, in my opinion my dahling.. shall we count the ways?

Thanks for the input. My use of the word disaster might be a little harsh.
I asked myself the question: Did Clinton leave the country and the world a better place by his work as President? Sadly, I think the answer is no.

So it seems you use disaster incorrectly as well but will admit that. Ah well. Nader may bring a needed point of view to the table but he is not a serious contender.

Nader 2008 ! This is his year!

Yeah, right. Surely you are jesting. Do not waste your vote just for the "fun" of disturbing what is going to be a mighty important election.

Well Nader proves that no matter who he thinks He is, He is an agent for the Dark side! The evil ones will love to have the progressive vote split. That way they won't even have to tamper with voting machines or lock out minorities in long lines to win! So a Nader run will assist those totalitarian forces of the dark side to keep power, bleed the people, enrich themselves and their corporate friends, and continue to trash the constitution and our civil rights!

Minorities don't like to stand in line?

5 or 6 hours? Only in democratic districts of course! Don't worry gop, even though you use the flag to prop up the evil of the bush empire, a change is coming. Nader may be the water boy for McCain, But McCain means more of the same! The revolution is coming, and Obama will be leading it!
