#1 Ok link is up...

Ralph Nader, the consumer advocate who ran for president in 2000 as a Green Party candidate, will enter the 2004 race for the White House as an independent candidate, advisers told Fox News on Friday.

A formal announcement by Nader is expected this weekend.

"He's going to be discussing his role in the presidential election," Linda Schade, a spokeswoman for Nader's presidential exploratory committee, said of the man whose 2000 run is blamed by many Democrats for tilting a close election in favor of George W. Bush (search). "He's felt there is a role for an independent candidate to play."

#2 I agree with him. There is a role for him to play on the left side of the Democratic party. Kerry is Bush lite.

#3 Odd that it should break on Fox as opposed to say, PBS.

#5 Run, Ralph, Run!

I hope Karl Rove has a better bagman than the one who delivered the campaign contributions to Al Sharpton.

#9 wcr - go right ahead. I think that Nader truly believes that he is the man. At the very least, we have another candidate with ideas that he believes in. Stupid ideas...but I'll take his debate over Kerry's or Edward's anyday.
