Ralph's speech is at <http://www.cfr.org/campaign2004/pub7058/nader/waging_peace_advancing_justice_promoting_security_the_civic_displacement_of_corporate_globalization.php>.

His Iraq policy, which may not please the "Troops out now!" contingent:


>An alternative future that will separate them, distance them from
>insurgencies and the resistance, would be to declare a set date for
>a corporate and military withdrawal by the United States from
>Iraq--let's say until the end of the year--with a phase-in of
>international peacekeepers from neutral countries who are
>experienced in that effort, as well as from Islamic nations, and
>that that be correlated with internationally supervised elections to
>avoid any impression that a puppet regime is going to be put in
>place, with continued humanitarian assistance until the country gets
>back on its feet. That will give a stake to the mainstream Iraqi
>people and fortify the position of a more peaceful resolution for
>this reckless adventure.
