Please don't...
Amid frightening reports that Ralph Nader will announce his intention to join the Presidential race once again, I sent the following letter just now, and encourage everyone else to send your thoughts as well. Perhaps his mind can be changed in the final days. Send notes to: info@naderexplore04.org.

Mr. Nader,
George W. Bush must be stopped. If he wins by percentages that reflect your role as an Independent candidate, I fear that every last bit of your good work will be forever forgotten. Thanks to the efforts of the supporters of Gov. Dean, Gen. Clark and Rep. Kucinich, the grassroots is poised to become a monumental force in this election, a force whose power will be predicated on a single-minded focus: removing President Bush. If we are successful, the effects will be much greater than a Kerry or Edwards Presidency, it will be a huge step toward returning political power back to the people. We the grassroots are ready to take ownership of this race. The last thing we need is a distraction, or a continuing question of the Democratic nominee. Our economy is in peril, and our Republic stands in the balance. Please join with us, and let's work together to keep a Democratic President honest once he's in... This is not the time for your candidacy. Last time will not be forgotten. This time would not be forgiven.
Thanks for listening,

Don Byrd
