Nader | Nader: Support Me, Vote Kerry

In an NPR interview, Ralph Nader encouraged supporters to attend his rallies, but feel free to vote for Kerry, especially if it looks close.

Nader says he is running for the office as a way to steer the Democratic Party toward an agenda he advocates. The longtime consumer advocate wants would-be supporters to attend his rallies, but he says he wants them to feel free to cast their votes for Sen. John Kerry once they enter the voting booth — especially in swing states where their vote might help defeat President Bush.

Ralph is exactly what the Democratic party needs: another reason to move toward the left.

The D’s are not moving toward Ralph. Nor will they.

At the moment in OR, it’s the R’s who are working to support Nader’s bid.
