Talk about being an asshat. Ralph Nader has been a part of giving America 3 parties, instead of this two party system. I mean, it's pretty shitty that America has to choose between 2 people no one really likes.
The problem you are seeing is not Ralph Nader, it's the stupid people voting for him in the wrong states. I live in California and if I were registered here, I would vote for him. WHY? Because California is already a democratic state, and Kerry would win its vote anyway. If I were to vote for Nader, I would be giving him a certain percentage of the vote so he is funded and able to run next year, giving America more choices. The people you are TRYING to talk about, are the people in republican states, such as Ohio, where I am registered to vote, who vote independent.
Bush actually supports Nader in states like those because he knows who votes for Nader. Republicans tend to only vote for republicans. Democrats either vote democrat, independent or none at all. So who is voting for Nader? Dumbass Democrats in republican states. So it's not that Nader is a dumbass... I'm going to go ahead and say IT'S AMERICA! Needless to say, as I am registered in Ohio, I will vote Kerry, not independent.
