RALPH NADER
Peace & Freedom's Presidential Candidate
finishes third behind Democrat Obama and Republican McCain
Ralph Nader and Venice P&F Chair, Jim Smith
Ralph Nader attracted one million votes nationwide without the exposure of the presidential debates and on a shoestring budget because he campaigned aggressively for the people's needs including single-payer health care, immediate withdrawal from Iraq, and Afghanistan, a bailout for the people, not Wall Street, the right to a home, an end to homelessness, same sex marriages, etc. Without a strong campaign from the left, all the pressure on Obama would have been from the right wing.
