When Independent presidential hopeful Ralph Nader drew 3 percent of the popular vote in the 2000 election, he was accused of handing the election to George W. Bush.
Whether that accusation was fair or not, Nader insists that’s not the point.
“Why should voters be denied a broader choice of candidates?” he said in a Register-Pajaronian interview Sunday. “The two parties don’t own all the votes in this country. They don’t have a constitutional lock on the system. Parties aren’t even mentioned in the constitution.”
