29. two things are 100% true with a third add on bonus

one- ralph nader lied. regardless of anything else, he did lie. both parties are NOT the same
two Yesterdays ruling would NOT have happened had Al Gore been seated

three (added bonus) had everyone reelected Jimmy Carter, the SCOTUS would now be 9 to 0



because SCOTUS alone proves both parties are not the same

one thing is assured though-I thank all the fine people in the press yesterday, as to a person, all I saw indeed went out of their
way to praise both Dr. King and LBJ.
Lyndon Baines Johnson has finally been redeemed.

Something I have known all along.

Because I never sold LBJ out and LBJ would have won against Nixon in 1968 head to head. Like he helped do such in 1960.

God Bless Dr. King, LBJ and Barack Obama.
All 3 shall be remembered forever.

Once Hillary has that landslide victory in 2016

at that point, Ralph Nader will be the forgotten man.
Then when someone brings his name up(and at that time, I shall no longer mention him)
people will say WHO? and shrug their shoulders.

Ralph could have been.
could have been a senator
could have been a governor
could have been a cabinet member
could have been something
could have been a contender

after Hillary's landslide
all he will be is WHO???

IMHO.

And thank you Barack Obama for nominating Sonia Sotomayer and Elana Kagan, two of the best.
And my Hillary nominate you in 2018, and that be one of the change SCOTUS to win back the court.
