Another choice for President!

For those folks who are unsatisfied with the choices left for President, would you consider voting for Ralph Nader? Why, or why not?

While I think it's admirable that he tries and tries and tries (ad infinitum), I just don't see the point.  I would not consider voting for him because he has so many idealistic plans that I just don't see as even remotely realistic.  I also disagree with him on a lot of things- gun control, welfare, some of the corporate stuff, economics, etc...  I can see him trying to get involved in too many things, thus running everything badly (a criticism I have for many liberal leaders).  I just saw this in an article this morning, and it seemed to surm up my belief on the presidency very well: "The president's job is not to run the country; it is to lead the nation."  Nader is not a leader.

No I wouldn't vote for Ralph Nader. Being this is his third or fourth bid for president I don't think people will take him seriously,At least I hope they don't I know I ain't. When I Read that he was going to run my first thought was ''spoiler''. He will only take votes away from the democratic nominee. Just think if Nader did not run back in 2000 Bush probably wouldn't have won and the whole 911 tragedy would have been handled much differently. We almost most likely would have gone after Osama Bin Laden and those responsible for the 911 attacks. I think we would have killed or caught Osama if Bush wasn't in the white House. Instead we invaded and attacked Iraq who had no ties to 911. So when I hear Nader's name I hold him some what responsible for the 3000+ men and women who has died over in Iraq.
