get over your self-righteous pretension which keeps you in ignorance. it is not that Nader was every going to be president, it is that he asked the big questions on the big platform, which apprantely people such as yrself are content to ignore. Nader to a big dive in his legacy, had he not ran for president then people would only remember all the shit posted above, but alas, all they know is the propaganda from the Two-Party elitists...
