What sort of arbitrary inexplicable decisions will Ralph Nader make if he won't sign bags?
I was a volunteer at the Green Festival in Washington DC, over the weekend and the last speaker on Sunday was Ralph Nader. He was signing books at the tent right behind my assignment (collecting donations, cleaning up, etc.) I'm not a huge fan of his, but I do admire his work. So right after my shift ends I stood in line at his signing/meeting tent. His book was on sale at a separate tent, but so were some 50 other peoples, so it wasn't exclusive for him. It was my turn so I walk up to him and ask if he can sign my Green Fest tote bag (gift for mom) and he says "I don't sign bags" right after he said that

Just like that. No excuse, nothing. What if he decides one day to just skip out on something he's should do as President?

Oh, and he doesn't read The Consumerist, which is a popular consumer web site.

1. Haha reminds me of something that happened to me..
In Canada we have two "left-wing" parties, the Liberals and the NDP. I'm a Liberal, but I like the NDP too, and I was at parliament one day and saw the leader of the NDP outside, just as a car was pulling up to him, so I asked him if I could get a quick picture with him. He's just like "sorry" and got in the car. I'm not such a big fan now...
