Dear Amer, I agree that Nader was wrong in equating the Winner President Bush with the loser Sore. If Sore had won his mindless ninnyhammer environmental policies would have damaged the economy so badly that in four year the situation would be so bad that calls would be made to round up environmentalists and lock them into concentration camps in the dessert as the Japanese were in the second World War. The stupidity that would have been inflicted by Sore would set back Environmental issues for decades. We are indeed fortunate that we now have an honest concerned environmentalist in the white house who will make real constructive and positive advances in improving the long term environment prospects. tom watson tosiwmee

The reason I don't think so is that I watched both the Wallace and Perot phenomena in recent history, and I find that being a spoiler or almost-spoiler doesn't phase the supporters of these populist-type candidates. The same also shows if you go back to Wm Jennings Bryan and other populists of the past. To this day, for instance, there's still a "conspiracy theory" about whether or not FDR had Huey "Kingfish" Long assassinated. Populism is one of the most interesting features of American political history. I sincerely doubt Ralph is the least bit regretful that he hurt Gore's results, nor are many of his supporters.
