Nader<< Who the heck is this Nader guy that keeps getting mentioned on the list? Is he an American politician or something? Please excuse my ignorance if its common knowledge and I've managed to miss it but I've never heard of him. It seems to me that in America the two political parties both sing from the same proverbial hymn sheet. Is it really democratic to have a two party
Greetings Listees, political system? If the two parties were radically different or if there were more parties to choose from then maybe. Perhaps that's just the way it is in the most powerful country on earth, where you can vote for any president you want as long as they're right wing. Introduce some radical lefties, communists or environmentalists or something and stir it all up a bit, maybe even make the established two parties do something to earn their positions. For what it's worth, I think anybody who wants to be a politician or president or whatever shouldn't be allowed within a hundred miles of an election because they're generally all in it for the ego trip and not for the benefit of the people who vote for them.
