I just don't see why Nader entering the Presidential race really forwards his cause. Whatever good he has done successfully, has been done from the private sector. Whatever confusion he has added to the national dialogue has been injected by his political campaigns. Why the hell is he going to spend his money and time on a campaign that will not win, and only lessens the chances of putting someone decent in Bush's place? This makes little or no sense; if all he is after is exposure to his programmatic aims, he can flout his vision the way he has successfully done so in the past. His spoiling of the Gore campaign certainly did not lead to an endorsement of his platform.
