4. Nader is trashed here because most posters are partisan Democrats,
which means they have a very limited view of the world, politically speaking. They don't have truth or objective analysis as goals; they have "Dem victories" as a goal. Around here, for most posters, what's good for Democrats is "good;" what's bad for Democrats is "bad."

Nader has said true things that were critical of Democrats; this makes him "bad," so he must be trashed. See how it works? Nader ran in an election against a Democrat; this makes him an "enemy."

If you are looking for objectivity & rationality on the subject of Nader, you are in the wrong place. This is the place for frothing at the mouth about Nader & equating him with Satan.

Your points are all far too rational & accurate to meet DU standards of zealous partisanship.
