Nader has some good points, freeing slaves had too. (if they would have got some land and a mule) Not that familiar with that tree, although I have stumbled on quotes here and there, never really understood it except in the concpet of what "is" really "is". A daughter who votes for Nader seem like a much better possibility than many other choices, leaves times to later on pick the strategic majority in one particular district or state. (which I assume demands more political skill than what is suitable at a young, still hopefull age) Took me some time to understand why Nader couldn't get a seat in neither the house nor the senate, and only some impact on presidential elections. On the other hand, I would not wish total chaos on anyone. (we have this neat little system of electing 20 candidates from every district, easier for youngsters, 5% get what they like, but not possible in huge population US, I'm worrying about EU, similar problems) That is, through the magic of proportional representation but still direct elections, it is a joy to have almost anyone who can find a 4-6% support elected, time tells if they get anything done, free to say and claim whatever they think, in the congress, additionally lots of young ones and especially women) Ilmarinen Why not vote with your daughter next time?? depending on the strategic majority situation, obviously. Might be easier for family debates, until that prince arrives, hopefully?? Under the bed is anyway where a man should be, according to most wives.
