In his admiring, balanced 2002 biography, Ralph Nader: Crusader, Spoiler, Icon, Justin Martin explains that early in his career, "Nader felt he could achieve anything" in Washington. He testified regularly before Congress and was seriously proposed as a Democratic candidate for Senate and even, under McGovern, vice president. He was so allied with the Democrats that in 1972 he rejected a New Party presidential run because, he explained, that might "help throw the election to Nixon."

After 1980, however, he was completely shut out by the Democrats. His notorious nastiness and self-regard prevented him from fully being embraced by the party. During the Clinton years, Nader was a pariah even among the most liberal members of Congress and was altogether shunned by the White House.

Before the 2000 presidential election Ralph Nader attended his former friend Gary Sellers wedding reception as the best man. Mr. Sellers later told a Village Voice reporter that Nader hated Gore because "Gore wouldn't return his phone calls."

This just shows how egotistical and spiteful Ralph Nader is. It also shows how naive Nader's supporters are.

Ralph Nader did it out of spite
Ralph Nader's supporters are neurotic
Ralph Nader works for the Republicans
all of the above

COMMENTS:
I think he may be doing it out of hate for Democrats. For the last few elections he hasn't gotten more than 5 percent of the votes, what makes him think he'll win? I doubt there is anything. I definately think he's doing it for revenge.

The only thing that you can be sure about with Nader is that he doesnt drive a Corvair.

"He's doing the American people a service if he keep Kerry out of office"... What American people? You and your's? I know me and mine wouldn't be proud or any accomplishments earned on technicalities or deceit!

All American people. It's not a technicality if Bush wins because he gets more votes than Kerry.
