I just sent an email to ralph nader
Nader/Camejo campaign:
All summer, I volunteered for the Kerry Edwards campaign. I am 15 years old, so I could not vote for them, but if I had been eligible I would have. This is not because I liked John Kerry or necessarily believed in what he was saying, but because I dislike George W. Bush immensely.
Now, however, I realize I made the wrong decision. Seeing John Kerry role over so easily with possible voter fraud has made me sick to my stomach. You never never would have done that. I wish John Kerry would have won, and I hope he still can if fraud is proven, because I realize that four more years of Bush may do too much damage to repair.
I believe in your work, and I feel that those who call you a spoiler are wrong. Everyone has the right to run for president (so long as they're eligible,) and the fact that only two candidates have a viable chance every year is a reason why this country needs reform. Next election, I will be 19 years old, and I will vote third party unless I see real change. I saw you speak at the ADC in 2003, which, combined with your efforts over your political life, really has opened my eyes. Thank you for trying to tackle this potential voter fraud, as voting is the most sacred part of our democracy. Please carry on, as we try to end voter fraud, and, hopefully, remove George W. Bush from the White House do it.
