Ralph Nader - some interesting ideas?

It seems to me that looking briefly at Ralph Nader's programme, he's got some interesting ideas, what do people on here think?

Ok, Ok , I know I am a flipflopper. I cannot land on a pile of s*it and sit there for long because its stinking worse then the pile I just left...

So here I am again, buzzing around trying to find the least smelly. In other words I don't have a clue who to vote for...

Came across this in research, after an email, and to tell you the truth, I never paid much attention to Ronald Regan. I always thought he was worshiped a bit much. However I do like this clip and for the life of me I do not know why Ron Paul isn't the Republicans choice for a candidate. Republicans are "supposed" to have a different agenda then the Democrats.

Well jeeze, if suddenly you discovered that your checking account was receiving half-million dollar deposits every hour and your job was simply to spend it with the intent of buying friends and influencing people, then you would give up on being conservative; especially if you found yourself surrounded by people lobbying for your attention by buying your meals, giving you perks and treating you with dignity.

weeze do have to look at one bright spot: we're half-starving our children into a new level of conservatism.

YouTube - Ronald Reagan and Ron Paul: A Comparison

Ron Paul is a nut job. Stop getting your information from "you tube". Look at the guys platform and his stances on things like immigration, the war and the economy.

Yeah Army...we all know you will vote Republican no matter what, you would vote party if the candidate was Attila the Hun and his marauding(thieving, ravaging, extortionate)horde.

Oh never mind you voted for him twice.

JW, I can’t speak for Army, but Democrats that I can agree with are few and far between anymore. Two that come to mind are Zell Miller and James Traficant. Miller retired and the Clinton administration had Traficant thrown in jail because he stood up to them.

Traficant was known for his one minute speeches like those at the links below.

Attila the Hun was a liberal.

I vote for the idea of conservatism, individual responsibility, the right to gun ownership, lower taxes, less gov't and a strong military. Those things are important to me. If the dem party adopted those idea's then I would vote for a democrat but if you can find one of those let me know. IT's hard enough finding a republican that still believes in conservative values.
