Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeh, isn't he a little bit late?

I'd imagine he has as long as it takes for the others to get themselves sorted out as to who's running. All you need is the money.

This could be bad news for the Democrats, i.e. taking away some of their votes.

I think this a very bad news for Ron Paul.

Here's a thought : Ron Paul doesn't get the Republican nomination, and he jumps ship to be a joint ticket with Nader

Well I don't wanna spoil you thought, but that all depends on Nader's campaign
funding. Gravel says you can tell a lot from the source, and he is right.

Yep, I saw the Gravel video when in the debate he spotlighted Wall Street/major corporation money funding Hilary & Obama.

He doesn't stand a chance, wasted vote and money...

Should be interesting to see who'll get the vice nod when there's a candidate winner though

Democrats once pinned the blame on Nader for losing the 2000 election, but Al Gore was edged out in Florida by George W. Bush in a vote count.

Right, and the Supreme Court had nothing to do with it....

I'm in favour of Nader running, if only to challenge the media's darlings on issues that matter to voters.

That would be fantastic if Nader entered the race. I hope he does!
