Nader Rejects Black Caucus' Call to Drop Out of Race (A "testy" mtg..)
NPR/Tavis Smiley Show ^ | June 23, 2004

Posted on 06/24/2004 11:31:24 AM PDT by veronica

Ralph Nader had a testy meeting with members of the Congressional Black Caucus Tuesday.

Nader rejected their request that he quit the presidential race -- many Democrats fear that progressive votes for Nader could tip the balance in favor of a Bush victory over Democratic challenger Sen. John Kerry. NPR's Tavis Smiley talks with the independent candidate in the 2004 elections.

What do Blacks see in John Kerry? How does he relate to them? What do they have in common? Do they think he knows anything of their concerns and issues?

John Kerry could care less about these congressmen and women. He sends them out to do his dirty work.

Nader will be found dead in his car or something of the sort in a very short while. Of course it will be suicide.

Now if only we could convince Michael Moore and Al Franken to share a ticket. That would split the democrats between the fruits and nuts, leaving JFnK with single digit support.

What? I thought JFK was demanding just Tuesday to let more people participate in Democracy? Is this a "my way or the highway" kind of thing he seems to think only Republicans do? Doesn't seem too bipartisan to me. I am sure Kerry will rectify this injustice..

I can tell you what this black American see in John F. Kerry. I see a lying hypocrite that advocates the destruction of families and the murder of babies. His policies are inherently racist because they call for the extermination of the Negro race(see abortion statistics amongst blacks). He also courts the black vote in black church then cries about the separation of church and state. He also is against school vouchers to keep blacks on the liberal plantation. He is in league with the NEA as they are against vouchers for the poor. Someone should do a study to see how many NEA people have their kids in private schools then ask them the rhetorical question why aren't the public schools good enough for NEA children. He want's to raise my taxes. He wants to bow down to the UN and screw the sovereignty of this great land of ours. He is a double minded man which is unstable in all his ways(James 1:8). He is a disgrace to Vietnam Veterans and a traitor to his country. He is in the Viet Cong hall of fame along with Hanoi Jane. He threw medals away and he voted against support for the troops in the current war. He is a Manchurian candidate and a gigolo.

P O W E R!

That's all it is .. the dems (black or otherwise) want their power back. They don't care who the candidate is (example: Clinton), and .. they are willing to do ANYTHING and pay ANY COST to get their power back.

All your questions are moot .. they just don't matter.
