Camejo should dump Nader

by SUN
Opinion by SUN.
Carla Marinucci reveals that Ralph Nader accepts many large donations from wealthy Republicans.
[-San Francisco Chronicle, 9 July 2004]

This troubles Nader's veep candidate, Peter Camejo, a Green Party leader in California.
"If there has been a wave of these [donations], then that's something Ralph and I will have to talk about -- and about returning their money,'' Camejo said July 8 in an interview with The Chronicle. "If you oppose the war, if you're against the Patriot Act, your money is welcome.

"But if your purpose is because you think this is going to have an electoral effect, we don't want that money. I take no money from people who disagree with us,'' he said. "We're not interested in that.''

SUN asks Peter Camejo to resign from the Nader ticket.


Building a movement is a worthy goal,
but assisting Nader's personal ego trip is useless.

He doesn't know every person who is giving money and no doubt, Dean wouldn't 'want to have breakfast with' some of the INDIVIDUALS who had given him money.

The real story is about the DEMOCRATS getting MILLIONS from corporations that have been convicted of crimes and have admitted to crimes of destroying the environment, privacy, etc. For example, Rockwell paid out millions so that it could dump RADIOACTIVE WASTE into the waters. I only know about that because I inherited a tiny number of shares from a businessman relative who bought into them decades ago. Are the DEMOCRATS turning down money from the likes of ROCKWELL??

Give me a break.

Nader renounced any anti-gay groups who might be giving him money on the air on the debate.

The Democrats are no one to talk. This is strawman BS.

Nader taking donations from Republican contributors want to ratfuck the Democratic Party is one thing.

Kerry adopting GOP politics -support for the war, NAFTA, Patriot ACT, opposition to gay marriage - is another

You decide which is more dangerous.

It is funny to see you Leftists and Socialists losing on both ends of the argument!
I don't have to ridicule you anymore, you do a GREAT job of it yourself

This is nothing new for Nader. Has everyone forgot about him and Buchanan running around like best buddies in the last election? It was a disgrace. I used to have mad respect for Nader but now everytime I see him on tv I want to puke.
