Reform Party endorses Nader
Nader will be allowed on ballot of 7 key states including Florida and Michigan according to Inside Politics, if he accepts.

1. Does the Reform Party Stand for Anything Any More?
Nader doesn't seem to be a good fit. It would be a strange match.

3. Man...
Anyone who thinks voting for Nader is a good idea should take a course on political science, a course on history... anything to snap them out of their funland dream bubble. The left is notorious for idealistically splitting their vote and allowing extremist righties into office. Damn you, Nader.

5. Another interesting twist in the history of the Reform Party
Edited on Thu May-13-04 08:25 PM by bigbillhaywood
First a split between the social liberal (Jesse Ventura) wing and the social conservative (Pat Buchanan) wing, now this. It kinda makes sense-- Nader is closer on trade issues (a key Reform Party platform plank) to the Reform Party than Kerry or Bush, and the Reform Party has always had a strong Populist edge from the beginning (From Perot's opposition to NAFTA, to his support for establishment of univeral health care).
