16. First, what's a Nader supporter doing on this site?
I thought it was for Democrats.

Kerry doesn't need to be "pressured" on anything NOW. Nader supporters need to try to understand politics. ALL Presidential candidates who want to have a chance of winning a general election must move closer to the middle. Why? Because middle-America Independent swing-voters elect the President. Kerry can't win by moving further to the left in a general election. The time to push for progressive changes is AFTER the election.

Unless Naderites wake up to this fact and support Kerry now, they will be irrelevant after Kerry wins in November. The choice is theirs.

And what Nader did with HIS OWN employees is definitely relevant. It shows that he has no personal morals. His union busting tactics didn't involve "volunteers". He PERSONALLY repressed his own paid employees. Nader is a hypocrite of the worst kind.
