Posted by rebecca on October 31, 2000 at 19:43:08:This petition is the epitome of arrogance. The last time I checked- this country was still a democracy and ANYONE who could make it on to the ballot has the opportunity to become president. It is also erroneous to assume all the Nader votes would go to Gore. Many people would not be voting in this election except for the fact Nader is running. The way the Democratic party has conducted itself in the past 8 years as well as this election cycle is beyond repulsive.
The fact that the Vice President- who has considerably more resources at his disposal would blow this race SO BADly speaks volumes about the state of the Democratic party.
