Think of the Democratic Party as a major college sports....
conference. This conference however doesn't allow walk-ons so therefore Ralph Nader will not be allowed to debate. He didn't make the team, he didn't even try out.

So get over it, and move on.

He'll get lots of attention from the right-wing media who look upon him as Bush's savior, but even Ralph can't save Bush this time.

Anyway, he'll get no platform here to speak from. So move on. Get over it. He didn't make the team.

And like last time, there will be no debate for Ralph....

Maybe he should start running from East Coast to West Coast like Forest Gump did and all the Nader supporters can start running after him instead of posting to this board. That would be a much more constructive use of your time.

5. You mean the one where I posted this....
"If you wish to contribute to the defeat of the Democratic candidate for president, then you are welcome to use someone else's bandwidth on some other website. As the election season draws closer, we may expand this rule to include Democratic candidates for other political offices.

Democratic Underground may not be used for political organizing activity by supporters of any political party other than the Democratic party. Supporters of certain other political parties may use Democratic Underground for limited partisan activities in political races where there is no Democratic party candidate."

Trying to sell your justification for voting on a third party progressive ticket is paramount to organizing opposition to the Democratic Party Candidate.

problem with Ralph doing that......

I'll add this. Ralph Nader is traitor to progressive causes. Period, since we're telling it like it is.

7. He's not on any ticket yet
He walked on into our primaries. Nader doesn't want the Democratic endorsement so he can jump right to the presidential race. Kind of like how the independent football team Notre Dame can craft it's schedule at will and not have to put in a bunch of boring conference games.

recent years. He'll get no bowl game, period.

So what was the point of this thread.

And who knows maybe he'll pull an upset.
