Why support Nader?
A recent poll showed 81% of Americans think the country is headed on the wrong track. Obama has inspired millions of people by speaking out against the war and claiming to refuse money from corporate lobbyists. It's clear ,the overwhelming majority of Americans are yearning for a change from eight years of Bush's corporate war-mongering. But the question is: Can the Democrats deliver the change they are promising?

Beneath Obama's and Clinton's rhetoric, their actual records reveal that they have repeatedly voted to keep the troops in Iraq, and they have received millions upon millions of dollars from big corporations. Come hear Ralph Nader speak and read these articles about why you should support the strongest independent, pro-worker campaign and help us build a movement to end corporate control of our society!

Excellent Articles:
1. By Matt Gonzalez: 'The Obama Craze: Count Me Out' on Counterpunch

2. 'Does Obama Deserve Your Support? Ten Things You Should Know'

3. 'The Obama Mirage: Behind the Rhetoric of Hope and Change'

4. 'Break with the Two Parties of Big Business! Build Nader's Antiwar, Anti-Corporate Campaign'

5. 'Is a Nader vote a wasted vote? The Case against Lesser-Evilism'
