Using anti-democratic, mean-spirited methods, it appears the Democratic Party has kept Ralph Nader off the ballot in Pennsylvania and other states. Meanwhile, the cynical Republican Party has been trying to give financial support to Nader in order to hurt Sen. John Kerry. Both are wrong in thinking that the consumer advocate was the spoiler in the 2000 election. It was actually a three- pronged attack that was the spoiler: Governor Jeb Bush's machine in Florida, a U.S. Supreme Court fix and an obsolete states rights' institution -- the Electoral College. Thus we now have an unelected president in the White House. Anyone who is intellectually honest can see that the two major parties are just the flip sides of a coin that the Rev. Daniel Berrigan called the "Property Party." Our one-party state is not a Democratic republic, it is a corporate state dedicated to Western-styled capitalism, an unsustainable beast headed for the same trashbin as Soviet communism. Notice the pre-fascist tilt toward oligarchy and/or plutocracy. Nader stands firm in the face of the corporate crime waved, as he has for a half-century. Many thousands are alive today because of his work to make automobiles safer. Many thousands are dead because of Bush's war in Iraq. Kerry is offering a bill of goods that deserve careful analysis. For those who don't want to vote for the lesser of two evils, there is the option of writing in Nader as a presidential choice, along with his running mate, Peter Camijo, a prominent Green Party activist. I'm choosing party building over independent politics by voting the Green ticket: David Cobb for president and Patricia LaMarche as vice-president. In the words of Eugene V. Debs, who got more than a million votes for president 80-some years ago while imprisoned: "I would rather vote for what I want and not get it than to vote for what I want and get it."
