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.
Nader, just stay out of the parks!
Yeah, my socialist half sister voted for him the last time he ran.
Run Nader Run! (Oh pleasseeeeee!)
You go Ralph,I'm sure you'll get the same 30 or 40 votes you've always got,that is providing none of those moon children have died of old age yet !!!
Run, Ralph, Run!!
Go Ralph go!!!
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!
"Insane At Any Age" just bought a ticket for a personally guided tour of Fort Marcy Park
Nader is B. O. Plenty in a cheap suit.

NEVER FORGET
HILLARY RODHAM & WILLIAM CLINTON's supporting Communist North Vietnam's takeover of a then Free South Vietnam during the Vietnam War brought us:

What price now for US to pay, during another CLINTON Presidency, with our own Freedom now directly at stake here at home..?
NEVER FORGET

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.
Nader gets in shape for another run at the Presidency.
Nader - always good for a laugh.
Nader: Unsafe on any ticket!
And Ralph Nader is a bad version of a human being.
Me and Nadar actually agree on something? I feel so soiled...
A fraction of a percent isn't nearly enough. We need to find someone who can siphon off 5 to 10 percent.
