CNN tag line on TV says Nader can't be on ballot in 22 states. |
|
This is Nader's what...third?...run? Certainly he knows all about deadlines. He didn't seem to me to be courting the Green Party this time around. So does this indicate he knew he would not get on many ballots, and this was okay/his intent? If so, then would it be correct to say his efforts would be a help to Kerry, by pulling out anti bush voters who then CAN"T vote for Nader? Or is it true simply that people who would vote Nader would never have voted for Bush anyway?

4. I think nothing could be more obvious than the fact that Nader doesn't |

want to be on the ballot in close states.
He rejected the Reform Party nominaiton. He rejected an auto-nom by Greens (IIUC) which required a convention vote which he must have know he was going to lose, and the only state I know of where he is suing to get on the ballot after not getting enough sigs is Texas.
I think he just wants to have a platform from which to criticize Bush, but doesn't want to on the ballots.
