This just in:

Secretary of State Robin Carnahan announced today that a petition was submitted to place Ralph Nader on the ballot for the November 4, 2008, General Election as an independent candidate for U.S. President.

The petition, submitted by Nader for President 2008, will now be sent to local election authorities to verify the signatures. State law allows independent candidates to be placed on the ballot statewide if they obtain at least 10,000 valid signatures from registered voters in the state. The signatures must be verified by August 12th. If all legal requirements are met, the Secretary of State’s Office would certify Nader for the ballot by August 19th.

The Democratic, Republican, Libertarian and Constitution Parties will have presidential candidates on the November ballot, as well.

Sure Ralph, now ego wins out over prudence and good citizenship. As a result,we’ll have BushMcCain as President and war in Iran(if BushMcCain can remember where it’s at!).

Only terrorists will vote for Nader the Tater because that’s a sure way to destroy this country. His whole candidacy is a terrorist like move. He has no freaking qualifications for the office. He is like Jesse Jackson, just about so 80s.

I dug down and donated $25.00 to Ralph’s campaign, we all know he is not going to win but maybe the Democrats and Republicans will stop and take a closer look at what they stand for and start thinking about the people instead of themselves.

It is literally beyound my comprehension, as to how the Democrats could have blamed Relph Nader for Al Gore’s loss in Florida in 2000. They should have realized that the people who voted for Nader could just have easily voted for Pat Buchanan or Geo. W. Bush instead of Al Gore, if Mr. Nader had not been on the ballot. I hope that Ralph gets on the ballot in every State, so people can have a choice other than McCain or Obama.
