So do the Greens endorse Nader for the chance of Federal Matching Fun

[trumad]

Is that the reason they nominate a Non-Greener like Nader? Do they think by nominating a celeb like Ralph that it will help them achieve that goal?

Is it just the money?

1. Purely monetary

Greens have no ideals or asperations.

/sarcasm
(Sorry if I sound jaded, but I've been hounded by the 'you're either with us or against us' kerry people for the last two days - not that I haven't enjoyed the debate.)

2. Ok..that's cool about the Greens... But what about the non-Green Nader?

3. i thought the Greens had their own candidate for this election

read "NOTNader"

[trumad]

4. That's true..sort of...

Looks like Ralphie is trying an ened run by nominating Californias top Green hence giving him a chance for the nomination this weekend.

[I thought so.]

9. Me too.

Gosh ,lets let them have their convention. Our smartass remarks hopefully will not bugger their convention. I believe in Democracy. How 'bout you?

6. Obviously not in this case...

...or else they'd be doing something that works.

5. Well, he didn't get it in 2000, what makes them think he will now?

If Nader was the answer to matching funds than why didn't he get 5% in 2000?

[LoZoccolo]

7. "We destroyed the environment, but we got our matching funds!"

Maybe that's what they'll say if they actually do get 5% this time and get Bush* elected.

10. no kidding nt

[I thought so.]

8. DUH!

Please wait until they do so. Am I behind the curve here. Has the Green party endorsed Nader? or the other guy? Links would be welcome.
