Title: Nader Announces He Will Run For President
Post by: TheSarge on February 24, 2008, 09:05:10 AM
WASHINGTON (AP) –Ralph Nader is launching a third-party campaign for president.

The consumer advocate made the announcement Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” He says most Americans are disenchanted with the Democratic and Republican parties, and that none of the presidential contenders are addressing ways to stem corporate crime and Pentagon waste and promote labor rights.

Nader also ran as a third-party candidate in the 2000 and 2004 presidential elections. He is still loathed by many Democrats who call him a spoiler and claim his candidacy in 2000 cost the party the election by siphoning votes away from Al Gore in a razor-thin contest in Florida.

I found a Nader for President 2008 site but it doesn't really have any info on it yet:
http://www.votenader.org/

Most people know what he's gonna' campaign against; Corporatism. But if I remember correctly, last time he ran he chose an open borders, tax hiker for his running mate.

Edit: Here's another site that shows his stance on the issues:

Looks like the kind of guy the Liberals would support: "Bush is turning the U.S. into a police state".

The fact that he may be right about that hardly amounts to the same thing as thinking he's an improvement.  But hey, go for it, Ralphie!

Go for it, Ralph.

I will thoroughly enjoy watching the Dems rant and rave about him being a spoiler (which I hope he will be) for this election.   :-) :popcorn:
