Green Party candidate Ralph Nader, a unique and interesting individual who has unfortunately been quarantined from the presidential debates, summed up the political predicament perfectly. In an interview last week, Nader was asked if it would bother him that his presence in the presidential race helped to elect George W. Bush. He responded, "Not at all. I mean, you're dealing with Democratic do-littles and Republican do-nothings. And that's just not enough for the American people...
