Nader is running for president again, and progressive organizations from sea to shining sea are really pissed off (you can find a scathing liberal critique of his run at www.thenation.com/doc.mhtml%3Fi=20040216&s=editors2 , for starters). The week before Nader announced his candidacy, Kerry was close to 10 points ahead of Bush; a week after, he trailed by a couple of points, with Nader picking up the remainder. If you want 4 more years of oversimplified rhetoric, of corporate graft, of institutionalized antiintellectualism and failed foreign policy, by all means don't assassinate Nader, but the ethical choice is clear. (Note for the humor-impaired: don't actually kill Ralph Nader. (Just don't vote for him.) Also, these are sold at the cafepress minimum; I'm not making a profit. If you have comments or want me to add a new product (hoodies coming soon, I think) I'm byates (and replace this parenthetical note with the @ sign; it's an anti-spam precaution) emich.edu)
