Ralph Nader: Hillary's Just a 'Bad Version of Bill Clinton'(considering another run!)
Newsmax ^ | February 16, 2007

Consumer advocate Ralph Nader hinted Thursday that he would enter the presidential race in next year if Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton becomes the Democratic Party's nominee.

"Flatters, panders, coasting, front-runner, looking for a coronation ... She has no political fortitude,” Nader said of Clinton during a radio appearance when he was asked to describe the former First Lady.

"She's just another bad version of (former President) Bill Clinton,” he told KGO radio.

Nader, whose Green Party candidacy for president in 2000 was blamed for helping put George Bush in the White House by siphoning votes from Vice President Al Gore, told KGO radio host that he was considering running again in 2008.

"We're going to see what the Democrats come up with,” he said.

Nader, who was in San Francisco promoting a new memoir, "The Seventeen Traditions,” also has been hard on other Congressional Democrats during his book tour, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a San Franciscan.

He said he planned to visit Pelosi's San Francisco office to protest the war in Iraq.

While Nader received 2.7 percent of the vote in 2000, he got less than one-half of 1 percent in 2004.

Phil Trounstine, who heads the San Jose State Center for Policy and Research, said Nader's flirtation with another presidential bid is viewed by many as evidence that he is on "an enormous ego trip with potentially destructive impact.”

This is HUGE! If Nader runs, again, a GOP candidate will have a much better chance of beating Hillary in 2008.

Ralph Nader: Hillary's Just a 'Bad Version of Bill Clinton'

I disagree. Hillary is Bill Clinton without the middleman.

LOL. The usually demented Nader hits it out of the ballpark. Even a blind squirrel occasionally finds a big fat acorn!

It was obvious from the first speech that I saw from Bill Clinton, that he wasn't very bright. Throughout his presidency, he was no more than Hillary's proxy--his puppet. Bill's mother was a feminist who had typically chosen one bad husband after another (men to support her biases and desires for independence from marriage). And Donna Shalala worked for quite a few years to see to it that a feminist was brought to power over our country. She was the main person behind having Bill/Hillary elected.

Our worst enemy in those regards is ignorance.

A fraction of a percent isn't nearly enough. We need to find someone who can siphon off 5 to 10 percent.
