He's not the first non Democrat or non Republican to run for president. Happens every four years.

When the votes were counted Al Gore had won but that dirty SC stopped the recount. Al Gore won and Bush was installed, and Democrats and the people stayed silent. That's what should piss people off not that some candidate with no magic letters behind their name ran.

500 votes? Try 2,000 Democratic voters voted by mistake for Pat Buchanan because of the design of Florida's butterfly ballots. A number bigger than Bush's victory. But yeah, Nader
