Hahaha! It is an article BY Nader ABOUT Obama and the title of the OP is the headline. Luminous Animal Apr 2013 #21

That is not how the title of the OP reads. blue neen Apr 2013 #30

Intelligent people click on the link in order to render an informed comment. Luminous Animal Apr 2013 #36

Apparently you never heard of "Reagan Democrats." pnwmom Apr 2013 #27

So it was OK those Democrats voted for Reagan and Bush but not some others for Nader? Fumesucker Apr 2013 #28

They weren't Democrats and hadn't been for years. Also, they each only controlled pnwmom Apr 2013 #32

Then the "Democrats" who voted for Nader weren't Democrats either Fumesucker Apr 2013 #33

But the PROGRESSIVES who voted for Nader were progressives pnwmom Apr 2013 #41

Is Lieberman remotely "progressive"? Fumesucker Apr 2013 #43

Lieberman wasn't Gore's finest moment. But the country would have been far better off pnwmom Apr 2013 #45

You can't change the fact that Gore won with Nader in the race. Coyotl Apr 2013 #73

Not if he didn't get votes. But, he did because he attracted the left. Tierra_y_Libertad Apr 2013 #78
