Actually without Ralph Nader in 2000, Roberts and Alito never on court

New Hampshire 2000
Al Gore only lost because of Nader in Nov. 2000

forget 12/12/2000- it was all Ralph Nader

and I predict either Scalia or Kennedy shall retire soon, so Obama will pick 3 more, and Hillary will pick another 2 in her first term

by the end of her first term, it will be 7 to 2 or 8 to 1 and possibly 9 to 0 by the end of Hillary's 2nd term
including Chief Justice Barack Obama

Bork was a danger to America. No, it would not have been better.

but blame Ralph Nader and never vote for a 3rd party egotist again.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
