I'm with you on this one.
If a vote for nader wasn't the equivalent of voting for Bush thats where I'd go.

I was under the impression that Nader was running as an independent not a green.

He is running Independent. However, he is not on the ballot in Pennsylvania and various other states since he associated himself with/accepted money from the Reform party somewhere along the line, and therefore cannot run as an Independent. He reminds me so much of William Jennings Bryan...runs third party for prez for like half of his life, but never wins

He ran for President three times, I think.

What? Bryan ran as the Populist candidate in 1896. Since when was he a Dem? You want to take this outside?

Bryan won the nomination of the Democratic Party in 1896, 1900, and 1908. True, the Populist Party also nominated him in 1896, but since his famous "Cross of Gold" speech was addressed to the 1896 Democratic national convention in Chicago, I would think that he was more of a Democrat candidate than a Populist candidate (especially since he won the Democratic nomination first and since the Democratic Party won lots of the Populist votes anyways that year).
