You are right that we did not really yet realize that bush has shit for brains, but I think that almost all of the greens would have voted for gore if nader was not running. All in all, there really is no solution to this problem I am talking about, becuase like you said, other parties should be able to run. Its just that I find it frustating that the left, as a whole, split there votes between two canidates while there really was no non-republican right winger as popular as nader. I just hope bush is not re-elected. I think Kerry or Edwards are ok but I am not totaly crazy about either one of them. Just no more bush!
