Anyway, if you hear of Nader coming to speak in your area, go listen to him.  You will most likely learn a few things about our government and the political parties that will make you pretty angry.  Before him I never knew how truly backwards and corrupt Pennsylvania (and Philadelphia) government is.

Honestly, Why? Voting for a 3rd party candidate is just in my ophinion a waste of your vote, because we all know that a 3rd party candidate has no chance in office. It's either Republican or Democrat.

I don't know how people that nobody really knows justify their candidacy for the presidency.
I cannot see any logic in it.

why waste the money?

Agreed, why does he even bother running? It's just a waste of time and money!
