Do you have any evidence for this claim? I doubt more than a handful of union organizers support Nader. I guess you could call Noam Chomsky a "sectarian intellectual," but you'd have a hard time selling that to his many fans. And since when are activists better qualified to make political judgments simply because of their classification as activists?
