4. Will it get him to drop out of the race now if it's promised to him?
In that case, sure, why not?

8. Well I was thinking
He wouldn't give away all our public lands like Bush's boy.
And if he thought the country was calling him to do it, he just may do the right thing. I think it's a good choice for that position.

11. I second Kennedy. I truly believe Kennedy really cares
about the environment, and I truly believe Ralph Nader cares about Ralph Nader.

30. so, Nader is NOT in BED with the repukes???
you need to do a LITTLE research about where his signatures, his money and his support for getting on ballots is coming from...

it ain't GREENS, it ain't DEMS but it IS repukes...

like the little trick Jebby pulled in FL???

doesn't all that sand itch even a little?

Has my "vote". :)

7. No
Hard to tell what Nadar 'is all about' these days. I think there would be far better/clearer choices than him for that position.

19. no why?
Nader has no political experience and I believe no true political aspirations. He'd be bored with the job

20. There was a day when I loved and respected Ralph Nader.
Not anymore. He's nothing but a self centered, egomaniac. His concern is no longer about our government or country, it's about Ralph Nader getting his way. We wants to run, by G-d screw everything else, he's running. Who gives a shit that this is the most important election of our lifetime? No. I despise that man now.

21. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is tops on my list for that position.
He'd hit the ground running on this because he has been monitoring every move made by the Bushies in this area for the last four years.

23. I have to admit
he is a good choice I was trying to find a slot for Nader to get him and his voters on our side. Just getting load and hurling insults won't do it.

26. RFK Jr would be a great pick!, imo. He's been vocal, current, and clear
about the role the federal government has on the environment.

24. What is more important to Ralph Nader....
Fixing the environment or ending the war? If ending the war is more important, why would he want this job?

28. The public image would be good as Sec Interior
unfortunately we've learned that the public Nader isn't really who he is. The person we've learned about in the last few years isn't someone I want involved with a new administration in any way, shape, manner or form.

33. Ralphie? Why not Al Sharpton? At least THAT egomaniac did some good
during this campaign (and almost as much bad as Ralph)
Why reward duplicity? This is politics, but only you and 2 more nutters still respect Ralphie.

35. Too many conflicts of interests.
Nader would never sell any of his stock portfolio or place it in a blind trust in order to serve in any government in any capacity.

36. That's insane.
I'd doubt that ralph would even accept a position in a Kerry administration.

Besides, he should have well lost all his credibility with progressives since he's morphed into a tool of the repugs.

37. Nader got in bed with the wrong people
he's done for now. I used to see him as a Michael Moore type, you know sticking up for the working class. But this year he's proved he's just another one of them.

BTW Snotcicles, great handle :toast: and n/t means no text. like -eom- is end of message. At least thats what I assume
