Cut this crap out about sliding over the class barrier. Urging support for
Nader is not the same thing as crossing a picket line or voting for war in
Yugoslavia like Bernie Sanders did. If the Communist International, upon
reflection after the event, could have described the Robert LaFollette
campaign of 1924 as being a victory for the left, then we can adopt at
least an open mind when it comes to Ralph Nader. As far as the Mexican
Greens are concerned, they might have made a mistake in backing Fox but why
drag them into the discussion. There are enough problems with the American
Greens themselves without crossing the Rio Grande river to find more.
