I still have huge issues with people claiming Nader ruined things for the democrats. They say it like little kids. Really, so what if some of them would have voted for someone else if Nader wasn't a candidate? They voted for who they WANTED, and honestly why is that such a terrible thing? People SHOULD vote for the candidate they want! They shouldn't be guilt tripped into thinking that if they don't vote for the two main parties, they are being unAmerican. That sort of attitude about the whole thing is just totally sickening. Vote for what you want, don't worry about how others are voting.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
