No one can guess what would happen in a public election if we used a better voting system, or if we had the fair media coverage that I described. So I won't debate with you how Nader would do. But I will say that one rarely meets a Democrat voter who thinks that Kerry is as honest as Nader, or who likes Kerry's policies as much as those of Nader.

But of course this voter would never talk about that on this list. It would be totally inappropriate.
Curt, could it be that you have your head up your tv?
Mr. Ossipoff should be banned from this list, my opinion. Not for his opinion about Nader or for his strong views on election methods, nor even for his arrogance, but for his gratuitous use of personal insult. I'd recommend, if he is not banned, that others not reply to his posts. This is my own last reply. It's a shame, Mr. Ossipoff. You actually do say some things worth saying. But then you trash it all and your own reputation with your unrestrained habit of insult.
