Nader/Which is better; ignore him/stand against him.
Edited on Sun Feb-22-04 06:39 PM by Madame_Bovary
I hate to say it, but historically, people have said that if you ignore something or someone, they will probably go away.....but that's what they said about Hitler; and look what happened?

I think that his impact will be less than the last election; however, everyone must speak out about this issue.

In order for evil to prevail, all it takes is for a few good men to do nothing.

1. So long as he doesn't get on ballots
Which is an arduous and expensive process without a party backing you, I don't think it'll hurt AS much. This said, if 2000 was any indicator, just a few hundred votes, which he is sure to get, in some key state could have disastrous consequences.

He needs to be bribed with something like EPA chief or Secy of Labor.

2. The candidate himself should ignore Nader but the grassroots should fight
Expose each individual incident of Repugs supporting him, and get his insidious business deals out to the media.

4. Ignore him.
Negative attention is still attention. He should be ignored. Plain and simple.

5. Slaughter him
He has chosen to step into the ring with the big boys. He deserves to be KO'd. We can't allow him to hold the door open for Team Bush again. We have to wage a full scale assault against Ralph Nader, just as if we were running against him and him alone. In fact, he may be the only thing that stands between us and the WH right now. We must attack Nader with everything we have.
