No. If you check my post you'll note an allusion to it.

I haven't demeaned anyone, including those like yourself who cannot argue without reference to the other person, rather than his/her ideas.
I doubt Nader did either, though I wasn't there. A view about what's important and what is less important is not the same as demeaning persons who hold a contrary view. Unfortunately people take any effort at prioritization personally. That's ID politics in a nutshell.
I don't know what other issues you're referring to. Nader's long suit is not personability.
