NADER RUNNING AGAIN FOR PRESIDENT
Bawhahahahaha... Baaaawhaahahaha

Nader's Green Party bid won nearly 2.9 million votes in 2000 and was blamed for siphoning support from Democrat Al Gore -- particularly in Florida, where Nader won 97,488 votes and Gore's loss by a bitterly contested 537 votes cost him the presidency. (full article)

Well, we wouldn't have had eight years of Clinton if it wasn't for Ross Perot taking a large chunk of the Republican moderates. The beauty of American politics is that things like this just happen. Nader was a factor in 2000 and maybe he will be a factor in 2004. Who really knows?

I do wonder if he's really running to challenge the two-party system in the U.S. and be a voice for the underrepresented, or if it's because he's more of an egomaniac. In the twilight of his life, Nader doesn't command as much attention or respect so maybe he needs the spotlight to feel the love. I guess I'm almost comparing him to a human groundhog... needs to be in the public eye once every few years, so the presidential elections are perfect timing to rub his ego. Whatever his reason for running, it's only a good thing for President Bush.
