Reply #67: Your delusions about prophets [View All]

make intresting reading, but like Nader's campaigns are rooted in academia, not real life. For Nader's existence in this campaign (and I mean the one that started 4 years ago) to be valid, you have to accept the premise that
1)there is no difference between the parties,
2)a president Gore/Kerry will be no more valuable to this country
than a president Bush

You are both wrong on both counts. The differences in the parties is obvious.

The Democratic Party is not without its flaws and blemishes. However, if the whole party was to the right of Atilla the Hun, it would still be to the left of Bush.

If you are unable to see what has happened to this country since Bush was erroneously placed in power, you are deluded.

For the sake of courtesy, I will assume that it is a sincere delusion. However, an assessment of Nader's actions and statements could lead a rational person to conclude that he has some sort of messianic complex and wants to see the country in ruin so that he can become its savior. PLEASE, spare me!

An academic discussion of many of the issues in which Nader professes to believe would be valuable. However, the time for academics has passed. This is the real thing. Despite whatever his illusions of grandeur tell him, he is not going to uplift this campaign with his platitudes. He is only mucking it up for the rest of us....for the country.
