Dear Green Party,
Please don't run Ralph Nader again. He isn't stupid, but he is impressively arrogant. I heard him speak once, at college. He went on for four and a half hours. (Well, actually, I left after four and a half hours. He was still going. For all I know he spoke all night.) When, after two hours, people began leaving, he mocked them for taking more interest in their classwork than in the Almighty Ralph. He devoted the first ninety minutes of his speech to his past triumphs, from "Unsafe at Any Speed" on.
Ralph Nader is a great reformer. He might make a good dictator, if he could get the military on his side. But he'd make a lousy president.
