Dear Mr. Nader,
I have been a big fan of yours over the years and your boldness & concern for the American consumer. You have done a remarkable amount of good in that role and we appreciate it as proud Americans!
However, your running for president has be puzzled and bewildered me because I'm sure you don't want to go down in the history books as a "spoiler" and having done things (run for office) which caused so many of your good works to be undone by the republicans.
I know that the democrats aren't perfect and neither is John Kerry. Everyone is human, and cannot be perfect but the point is that some are much more imperfect than others.
The republicans don't have the big picture and the concern for consumers, average citizens and the poor in their minds much at all and will do everything they can to keep the middle and lower class jobless so many have no choice but to volunteer for the military and fight their needless wars such as Iraq.
YOU can make a huge difference IF you join with the democrats and support John Kerry in these last 2 weeks of the campaign.
You can become an influential voice within the democratic party and work to reform it in some ways to make sure it is more representative of the way you feel and many other Americans feel.
Perhaps you could even hold an important post within the Kerry administration and/or be an advisor to him
I know he is an open minded person and will give your credible ideas some weight.
Rather than assuring four more years of tyranny from the Bush administration and the republicans, YOU could make a very big difference working from within.
I know you think others need a 3rd choice but there is no way a 3rd party candidate can win especially when registered to vote in only 30 or so states and the fact that you are not registered in all states may be somewhat due to your being blocked from some ballots but it's mostly due to lack of support for a 3rd party and your late entry into the race.
Please reconsider your candidacy and be a hero to MILLIONS of Americans who want this country to go in a different direction away from the repression and joblessness of George Bush!
Thank you for seriously considering this!
Sincerely,
