CONCERNED SCHOLARS, WRITERS AND ACTIVISTS 2000
If given a choice between Bush and Gore, he would vote for Bush. Mr. Nader would happily throw the country to the Right, placing the Supreme Court and the entire executive regulatory system in the hands of the most retrograde elements in our political life.

CB: Late comments, perhaps repetitive.:
True worse the better. So , why not vote for Bush rather than Nader ?
)))))))))
The repeal of Roe vs. Wade would be of little consequence. Never a champion of women's rights, Mr. Nader claims that abortion rights might just as well be left up to the states.
(((((((((
CB: Nader's lowest and worse position.
(((((((((
All U.S. aid to Israel should be cut. No matter what one thinks of the current situation in the Middle East, such rhetoric is not only irresponsible, it is inflammatory.
((((((((((
CB: Wrong. Point for Nader.
((((((((
But these are only the latest Orwellian utterances from Mr. Nader and his supporters.

CB: He sounds more like Orwell than Big Brother.

Should Governor Bush be elected President, and the Republicans hold the Congress, conservative Republicans will have captured control of all three branches of the Federal Government for the first time since 1930. Mr. Nader, who is also supporting divisive Green congressional candidates in some tight races, plainly does not care about this -- or worse, seeks it, under the naive impression that it will heighten social contradictions and lead to what he has called "a progressive convulsion." This is sectarianism of a familiar sort in the century just past -- a sectarianism that had reaped nothing but catastrophe for liberal and progressive politics.

CB: This list probably hit this long ago. but where else besides Germany late twenties might this refer to ?
