The existential reality ron is that but for nader, Gore would have been president. And he denies that. Imagine how different the world would be today.

Nader understands that to advance the ball you have to form coalitions, often with people that won't agree with you on every issue. There's no question the man has integrity.

Nader always tells the truth. And a half. That's my problem with him.

There. I knew I could find someone for whom that line would fit. ;-)

It started with the Corvair, which was actually a perfectly fine car. Nader trashed it for having front-wheel drive, which he claimed would cause dangerous under-steer, and cause accidents. Nearly every car on the road today has front-wheel drive.

Nader loves to throw dire warnings and accusations around, but doesn't seem to be unwilling to bend the facts to support them. I got tired of his brand of "truth" a long time ago.
