Please sign this email with your own name and send it to Ralph Nader at
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Then forward it to every person in your email
address book, to the newspapers and broadcasters in your area, and
anyone else you can think of. With the race so close and such a short time
until the election, it's time for action.
Dear Mr. Nader:
Over the years you have done a great deal for the American people. Now
you are about to do great harm. Your candidacy in this election has been
important. You have raised serious issues that need to be addressed. But
now your message is out and it's time to set aside ideology and step
aside. If you don't you will ensure that George W. Bush is our next
president. And if he is elected with a Republican majority in Congress, the
American people stand to lose most of the social, economic and
environmental progress we have made in the last thirty years. If there is
any question in your mind of this, consider the following:
THE SUPREME COURT
Bush will appoint activist conservative judges who will actively seek to take
away a woman's right to choose.
They will also support the corporate interests you have been so gallantly
fighting against by promoting "tort reform" which, as you know, is another
way to disempower the average citizen and take away his or her right to
sue corporations who damage them or cause death.
And the Bush Supreme Court will be anti-environment and side with the
exploiters and polluters who so willingly sacrifice the public health and
safety on the alter of short term profit.
THE DEFICIT AND THE MIDDLE CLASS
While Gore intends to use the surplus to pay down the deficit, Bush plans to
refund a large part of it to the wealthy. He says it's their money and they
should get it back. Well, it's their deficit as well and they should help pay it
off.
At this time the nation is almost five trillion six hundred billion dollars in the
red. That's $5,600,000,000,000. Over the past ten years we have paid
over three trillion dollars in interest. This year we will pay an estimated
three hundred and sixty-two billion dollars in interest. That's
$362,000,000,000, Mr. Nader. About $1,400 for every man woman and
child in this country. Do you have any idea what that amount of money
could do for the environment and health care and education if it was not
being wasted on interest?
Next year we will pay even more. And the years after that still more. And
instead of paying down the deficit it will grow larger. Why? So Bill Gates
and Paul Allen and all the other multimillionaires can have their much
needed tax brakes. And if Bush is elected and then inheritance tax is
eliminated, the middle class will be asked to make up the hundreds of
billions of dollars in those lost revenues as well.
THE ENVIRONMENT
As governor of Texas Bush has put the polluters in charge of the state's
environmental program with the result that Texas is now an environmental
disaster. Although he doesn't dare articulate it during the campaign, the
Republican agenda includes doing away with the Environmental Protection
Agency. If it's not eliminated completely it will be emasculated to the point
where it exists in name only.
And in service of his major contributors, the Oil and Coal conglomerates,
Bush and the Republicans will encourage oil exploration in environmentally
sensitive areas and the burning of fossil fuels to produce electricity etc. If
you think global warming is bad now, just give a Bush administration a few
years to pay of its debt to these special interests.
And whether you want to admit it or not, Mr. Nader, Al Gore has been one
of the strongest advocates for environmental protection. He recognized the
danger of global warming before most people had heard the term. And he
almost single handedly, and against the advice of all his political advisors,
saved the Kyoto Accords. But a rabid Republican Congress has blocked
their implementation along with almost every other environmental effort put
forth by the Clinton Administration. You're correct. Clinton/Gore haven't got
a lot done. But if you'd been president these past eight years, neither
would you.
CAMPAIGN FINANCE REFORM
You warn us of the growing power and influence of the corporations on our
lives and our democracy yet you threaten to help defeat the only candidate
with any chance of doing the one thing that will help solve this problem. You
know Bush and the Republicans will not support Campaign Finance
Reform. But Gore has promised that he will work with John McCain in his
mission to bring about the reform we need. Why on earth would you
actively work to keep this from happening?
SOCIAL SECURITY
You know Bush plans to divert hundreds of billions of dollars to Wall Street.
It seems like a great scheme while the market is going up as it has been
for the past several years. But what goes up also comes down. While this
risky scheme may put a few billion in the pockets of the brokers and
underwriters, it will turn Social Security into Social Insecurity and endanger
the retirement of many people who unfortunately don't have as much money
as you do.
Mr. Nader, you have stated publicly that you would rather see Bush win than
Gore. You seem to believe that Bush will make things so bad that the
country will rise up. This reminds me of the days when doctors bled
patients in order to cure them. The problem was the patients often died
from the treatment rather than the disease.
As someone who agrees with you on so many things and would love to see
you continue your campaign to educate and enlighten us about the things
for which you care so much, I ask you to do the right thing. The election is
too close and now is the time for you to throw your support behind Gore. If
you help Bush win you will have single handedly done more damage than
any well meaning person could possible conceive of. Please don't let this
happen.
Sincerely,
Patricia Heller
