Reply #36: where do I stand?

The voice of the people
...will not be televised. The mainstream media is no longer the voice of the people.

Rupert Murdoch
...is _____*%$@# unprintable. A monster.

Third party candidates
...are a waste of time in a 2-party system which does not allow for proportional representation.

Nader
... makes sense on some key issues, but is a proven nightmare as a candidate. And as for consumer advocacy in general, it couldn't be in worse shape (not his fault but it has all been undone). Nader has hurt the cause of 3rd party political efforts substantially. He's history.
