President Obamas smooth path to the Democratic nomination may have gotten rockier Monday, after a group of liberal leaders, including former presidential candidate Ralph Nader, announced plans to challenge the incumbent in primaries next year.
The group said the goal is to offer up a handful of candidates from various fields and areas where the president either has failed to stake out a progressive position or where he has drifted toward the corporatist right.

Maybe Paul and Huntsman can join Nader in the dem primaries as well.
The more the merrier, I always say.
As wacky as Ralph Nader is, he’d be ten (okay, five) times better as president than Obama.
Is this suppose to make us want him to stay? lol
What’s bad for Obama is good for the country.
“As wacky as Ralph Nader is, hed be ten (okay, five) times better as president than Obama.”
Just remember your math: A Ga-zillion times Zero (as in Barry Zero) is still Zero.......
The key to a Clinton victory is a 3rd Dem candidate who draws from the black/urban/hard core communist vote. In a three way matchup with Clinton, Obama, Cornell West/Al Sharpton/(insert your favorite black leftist), Obama could lose enough of the black vote that Clinton could win.
File this under “believe it when I see it”.
“Hey! Hey! America! Look over here at this hand! See how it’s moving around! No, that’s not my other hand picking your pocket. What’re you, some kinda Republican sympathizer?”
No, no Ralph, go turd party.
Ralphie is a Nut with Integrity. He has run with a Turd party before and probably will again.
I’ve said all along that if Donald Trump really wanted to help defeat Barack Obama, don’t run on a Third Party Ticket, CHALLENGE OBAMA IN THE DEM PRIMARIES, DONALD.
I suppose this is just to make him look strong by wiping out some fringe from the fringe candidate. Then get ready for Obama/Huntsman!
‘you cain’t fix stupid!’
FDR was corporatist! (so was Hitler and Mussolini)

Unless Ralph could get his dream team with LRon ....
Hey, Carter only served one term. He is still eligible to run for another. Just sayin...
I guess ole Ralph is a racist now
