OK, for you, I read it. I actually agreed with it for the most part. I think everyone feels the 2 party system sucks. How to get that realistically changed, is beyond me. I don’t think Nader should be shut out like he is. And he certainly has a point about it not really being his fault that Gore lost. Against Bush it should have been a slam dunk.
But you were asking about Obama. That’s probably true as well. That’s he’s in the pockets of big business to a degree like everyone else. It’s hard to tell if that’s his personal ethics, or the way of the system. Nader is a prime example of what happens if you just run on your principles. You don’t win. Is that a reflection of the candidate or us?
And my first choice was always Edwards too. Actually, Edwards, Clinton, Obama, in that order. Clinton blew it, so this is where we’re at.
