Ralph Nader ABSOLUTELY Helped Cost President Gore the Election in 2000 despite these revisionists

[graham4anything]

100. Ralph Nader himself made sure that a 3rd party vote will never interfere with the democratic party

and I really could care less if say Rand Paul ran independent against Jeb Bush or CHris Christie and that led
to Hillary winning all 538 votes.

Why didn't Nader just run as a democratic party candidate in the primaries, get in the debates and go from there?

As he wanted something and he has said, he was rebuffed by Al Gore according to him (like he wanted say a cabinet post?)
that means he knows which side was better, and he did it solely for ego.

Gore should have offered him whatever he wanted. America would have been far better off had the two worked together rather than apart.

In effect, President Obama included Hillary and didn't shun Hillary. He values Hillary. And the two have worked together and will support each other.

People forget that President Obama ran to unite.
And he united 95% of the democratic supporters.

Nader could have done the same thing. His Ego got in the way (same as Ted's in 1980),etc.
(in 1980, Jimmy/Ted should have been the ticket, with Mondale being given say SOS or possibly a SCOTUS nomination
Jimmy/Ted would have beaten Reagan).

And yes, all the factors, both separate and apart led to bush seated.
One in November, one in December.
