25. This Is So Silly
If Nader didn't run in 2003 Al Gore would have been the 43rd president.


Nader got a paltry 2.75% of the vote but his 90,000 votes in Florida would have been more than enough to erase Bush's 537 vote margin in that state.

Nader's candidacy made it close enough for Bush to steal.
