Should Democrats fight to keep Nader off the ballot?
(36 votes since 8/2/04)
I was shocked, a party that chants democracy wants to keep Nader off the ballot, and of all places to whine about Nader...
South Dakota?
The Dems should be kissing the feet of Independants like Nader, after all it was a Libertarian who helped put Sen. Johnson (D-SD) into office when he ran against Thune.
Hmmm... Maybe the dems know that Kerry is way to liberal for SD voters, and Nader would just win the state for Bush. If Kerry is so wonderfull as the DNC claims, why am I reading quotes like this in my local paper:
Judy Olson Duhamel, chair of the South Dakota Democratic Party, said Monday that state party officials will challenge any signatures they believe are invalid.
"We'd definitely like to keep him off the ballot," Duhamel said.
Here, read the whole thing for yourself. I love how the dems cry foul when things don't go their way, but will play dirty any chance they get!

The Democratic Party Is Trying To Rig The Presidential Election

New!
State level Democrats are doing everything they can to railroad Nader from their states’ ballots. If Nader supporters really wanted to vote for John Kerry, they would. Instead of RESPECTING the decision of those who will choose to vote for Nader, the Democratic party is trying to “force the hand” of those who wish to vote for Ralph Nader for whatever reason. I am sure that those who will vote for Kerry, Bush, Badnarik, or Russo would wish for their decision to be respected. So why are many Democrats disrespecting the choice of those who wish to vote for Nader? The Democrats have become like street thugs in the hood demanding respect for themselves, yet disrespecting others.
I am more turned off than ever to the Democratic party. I resent the Democratic party for trying to “ear mark” my vote for eight years with their lackluster “lesser of two evils.” No Democrat has addressed how voting for a third party candidate is different than not voting at all. They may stigmatize it as “throwing your vote away,” but it is more than that. Voting for a third party candidate makes a political statement.
Third party presidential candidates address and make stands on issues that the Democratic and Republican candidates shun. Third parties are watchdogs being broomed beneath the carpet by the corporatist media spewing forth it’s two party propaganda. Railroading Nader from this election will seal the eventual demise of third parties and for that, I would never ever forgive the Democratic party.
I wonder if the Democrats who regurgitate, “A vote for Nader is a vote for Bush,” were the same feeble minded imbeciles spewing forth, “He is our president and we have to support him no matter what,” or, “If you are against the war, you are against our troops,” back in the spring of 2003? So simple minded and impressionable are many who waive the banner of either of the two major political parties!

So lets kick Nader off the ballot? How American is that?
I could see this sort of thing from the neo-conned 'republicans' but not from the party who claims to be about the people (I did expect it, but I'm sure you will note my sarcasm).
BTW I don't see the neo-conned giving the Libertarians such a hard time.
