Nader to Hillary: Hang In There!
Mar 28th 2008 6:30PM
Filed Under:eHillary Clinton, Primaries, 2008 President, Media, Ralph Nader
Senator Clinton: Just read where Senator Patrick Leahy is calling on you to drop out of the Presidential race. Believe me. I know something about this.More evidence that politics makes strange bedfellows. If Hillary's lucky, maybe Nader will consider her for a cabinet position.
Here's my advice: Don't listen to people when they tell you not to run anymore. That's just political bigotry. Listen to your own inner citizen First Amendment voice. This is America. Just like every other citizen, you have a right to run. Whenever you like. For as long as you like.
It's up to you, Hillary. Just tell them – It's democracy. Get used to it. Yours truly, Ralph Nader

Dear Hillary, I am not your supporter, but I support your right to run. I would a million times rather have you than Barack Obama. At least you love your country. He does too but it is Africa not America.
Please don't accept the VP position, run as an Independent, your voters will follow you. But don't bow out take it all the way to Denver
Don't run with Obama,a racist. Many view him as a traitor as well. He NEEDS your voters, you don't need him and his baggage.

tzada, helpgod - you are the biggest bigots I have ever seen blog - ""he loves his country Africa! What a pair you have. In case your wondering if Hilary Clinton were able to read your comments she would denounce you on the spot, she wouldn't even acknowledge your support because it's coming from complete idiots. Your completely delusional, and completely racist. I'm not even an Obama supporter but because of your complete ignorance I felt compelled to comment. I think your white hood, and robe are wrapped a little too tight

tzada7:56PMMar 28th 2008
lol kelley you are such a loser lol
If that is so then why did I vote for Obama in the primary? lol
Explain why he went to a church that was African based? Calls himself an African American? Has Kenya citizenship which he has no renounced? You need to get a few facts straight before you start slinging stuff around loser
omg that was funny
sossity8:04PMMar 28th 2008
These are some of the most pathetic comments in support of Hillary. What is it with you? She is still in the race & she still has a chance to be the nominee - what more do you want??
Let's just force Obama & McCain to drop out so the Clintons can have the White House back & we can have our woman President. While we're at it, let's give GW Bush 8 more years & dig up Reagan 'cuz a lot of prople liked him when he was President. Ron can get more time in & most people will never notice the difference after the way the last 2 dopes ran the country into the ground.
Tom Baehner8:08PMMar 28th 2008
Ralph I had you all wrong. Why don't you hit the campaign trail for Hillary? Everyone knows you have the brains. But do you have the heart?
Mr. Clark8:14PMMar 28th 2008
Christopher Weber,
Nader is right. I think those last ten states should have their say and the superdelegates should do their job as each interprets it. I read a lot on superdelegates when the primary season started and some very powerful ones have interpreted it to their liking (not how it is written) and feel others should follow suit.
If you want someone to blame for how the Democratic Party looks at the moment...look no further than Howard Dean and the DNC.
Sincerely and respectfully,
Mr. Clark
Hillary for President8:15PMMar 28th 2008
What is in store with Obama? quote :
"Start with national security, since the president's most important duties are as commander-in-chief. Mr. Obama talked about invading Pakistan, a nation armed wi th nuclear weapons; meeting without preconditions with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who vows to destroy Israel and create another Holocaust; and Kim Jong II, who is murdering and starving his people, but emphasized that the nuclear option was off the table against terrorists - something no president has ever taken off the table since we created nuclear weapons in the 1940s.
Even Democrats who have worked in national security condemned all of those remarks. Mr. Obama is a foreign-policy novice who would put our national security at risk.
Next, consider economic policy. For all its faults, our health care system is the strongest in the world. And free trade agreements, created by Bill Clinton as well as President Bush, have made more goods more affordable so that even people of modest means can live a life that no one imagined a generation ago. Yet Mr. Obama promises to raise taxes on “the rich.” How to fix Social Security? Raise taxes. How to fix Medicare? Raise taxes. Prescription drugs? Raise taxes. Free college? Raise taxes. Socialize medicine? Raise taxes. His solution to everything is to have government take it over. Big Brother on steroids, funded by your paycheck. " unqote
THE color of his skin will not matter if he takes America further down on a downward spiral. Stop this madness. Wake up America.
Tom Baehner8:18PMMar 28th 2008
How old is Leahy 100? He's totally senile isn't he? I think HE SHOULD RESIGN FOR THE SAKE OF THE PARTY. He's way too old to make decisions isn't he?
SONY8:23PMMar 28th 2008

Stay in the race Hillary. Regardless of who endorses obama, you still have your many followers who believe in you and know you can lead this country. obama can't. We already know he is being cuddled by the media, but stand strong like you always do, and continue to fight for your right and our country.

Who is Ralph Nader??
durene8:28PMMar 28th 2008
Hey Lad, How about all these lies compared to Hillary's one lie they are comdemning her for.
Obama lies through his campaign literature, concerning Hillary's blueprint, and especially on healthcare.
--Obama misrepresents himself. He lies amazingly about his family in his book.
--He lied about being a Professor of Con Law.
--He lied about NAFTA.
--He lies about running a "clean" campaign when his own David Axelrod says extremely divisive and dangerous things about Hillary. They manipulate the media, and they spread falsehoods that trickle down to every Obama supporter you read here.
--He lied about bills he has passed, and when someone disagrees with a vote he has made, he will say that "he pushed the wrong button."
--His files and records from his time entire political career in Chicago have all vanished except for one year. Obama said "they were probably all thrown out because we did not have a procedural filing mechanism."
--Obama's judgement concerning his church: He LIED over and over again in interviews when he said that he didn't know about Pastor Wright and that he was never there during his hate speeches, but then Obama admitted he was later on his speech, but never apologized. Obama stayed in this chruch even though it is what we know about. Lifetime achievement award for Farrakhan, and endorsement from Farrakhan, and even HAMAS leaders have been published in this church's bulletin (twice) under the "Pastor's Page"--this is a terrorist group. HAMAS!
http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=59456
--Obama lied when he said his parents met in Selma, and that he was a part of the civil rights movement.
--Obama lies about his connection to domestic terrorist Bill Ayers domewho bombed the Pentagon, US Capitol among other spots, stating that it was a mistake to be a paid director of Rashid Khalidi's Woods Fund and raise money for AAAN. Meanwhile Khalidi is involved with PNA and PLO, Palestinian terrorist groups. Obama lied about Bill Ayers because he pretends they have no other connection but on the Woods Fund. Domestic terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dorhn, both of the Weather Underground had Obama over at their home and hosted numerous fundraisers for him, and introduced him to their "friends."
--Obama lies about supporting his radical cousin Raila Odinga for Kenyan president. Obama says YES he supports him and has made speeches, but then ignores the fact that his cousin signed NAMLEF with Muslim extremists and then nearly 1,000 Christians were murdered, set on fire in church's and macheted in the streets by Raila Odinga's supporters when he stated that the election results were rigged.
--Obama lies about not accepting lobbyist money OR big business money. He does. Exelon is one mention.
--Obama lies concerning the New Black Panther Party on his official website, removing it only after the Pastor Wright's sermons came to light. The NBPP is described as an extremist group by Anti-Defamation League.
--Obama doesn't get into La Raza, another extremist group, in which they decided to endorse Obama over Hillary.
--Obama does not discuss why Hugo Chavez and Daniel Ortega endorse him. Or why Colombian FARC terrorist papers include Barack Obama connections concerning his candidacy.
--Obama misleads about his experience because he always says never voted for a war, but he wasn't even in the Senate to do so.
--Obama has mislead concerning his experience on the foreign relations committee, when it was only a sub-committiee for Europe, and if Obama was so concerned with Afghanistan, why didn't he go to one single meeting he was in charge of? He said he was "fighting for this" at every one of his rallies but he wasn't. He was lying.
--Obama lied about another politician voting exactly like he did, just so he could show a false alliance, but that wasn't true.
--Obama's camp goes on to tv interviews and they fib, stating that Obama has been in the Senate for 4 years, instead of actually 3 years. Meanwhile, he has been compaigning the majority of his time in the senate.
--Obama lies about not knowing anything about the Vote Different youtube video.
--Obama lies about his important role among all of his controversial associates.
--Obama has plagiarized half his speeches.
--Obama lied about caring about the Black community in Chicago; he left them for dead in Rezko's slum buildings, just because they were such close business partners, and NO DOUBT, friends.
I can go on, but I really need to say, that Obama is NOT an honest person, and at the very least has poor judgment.
Lin Cruiz8:31PMMar 28th 2008
the Democratic party, whom I have been loyal to all my life,has disappointed me in having a man run for our Highest office without checking his credentials. The military, their families,
Americans whose relatives, fathers, mothers, grandparents who fought
in WWII, Vietnam, Korea, ....victims of terrorism, 911 survivors and
their families will NEVER vote for someone who does not STAND UP for America , (until running for the Presidential office,) against those who Damn America in any way!!!
We are not supporting O'Bama...not because of what his pastor said,but because of what O'Bama did not DO!!!
He should have stood up for
America or left that church and never returned.!!! If he wanted to be
President he should have taken a stand then for America ...but Barack complacently
stayed!!!!! His POOR Judgment and decidsion making skills in this
matter, show he is not a leader and definitely NOT PRESIDENTIAL
MATERIAL!!!!!

Is this the same Ralph Nader who has been criticizing Democrats & Republicans for many years about their reliance on corporate & big money donors having too much influence in the electoral process?
After the threatening letter that the Clinton BIG $$$ donors sent to Pelosi yesterday, no more proof is need that we don't have any voting power. It's the rich people who are making the political decisions for us. Ralph is sticking his nose in to a situation he should be continuing to criticize. We all know Sen. Clinton has every right to stay in the race, I don't need Ralph to tell me about it.
Nader stands to gain from the Democratic in-fighting because he'll get more votes from disaffected Clinton & Obama supporters depending on the outcome of the primaries & who will eventually be the nominee. This will ensure a McCain victory in November, just as he helped Bush win in 2000 & '04 by taking votes away from the Democratic nominees.

Nader is right.
This is still America. It's not Barack Obama's AmeriCuba quite yet.
Clinton should stay in. If she has any doubts about Obama, as many of her supporters have, then it is her duty to stay in the race.
