On the Nader.org website, Nader published an article, this past week called 'Greening the Corporation', questioning corporate legitamacy in new environmental policy. In the article, Nader claims that green is becoming the next 'profit center' but still maintains that hydro-carbon and greenhouse gas emissions remain increasing due to the lack of an obligatory company 'green' policy. "This overall persistence of corporate intransigence needs to be kept in mind as the blizzard of green announcements by companies continues." He suggests mandatory federal standards in order to significantly cut down on the pollutants. Corporations will and are claiming vast 'greening'. Consumers beware.
On November 13, Nader posted his generous support of Candidate Ron Paul, stating that "He won’t admit it, but Ron Paul is practically running on my third-party ticket." The article seemed fairly reminiscent of Nader's 2008 election woes and even though he doesn't agree with everything Ron Paul advocates, he did say that if he wasn't running he would vote for Ron. On the website with the article is a very intriguing youtube video endorsing the Ralph Nader campaign which admires Ron Paul's 4,000,000 million dollar fund raising effort. So don't count Nader out just yet but know that the next best thing is Ron Paul.

Would an independent Paul/Nader or Nader/Paul ticket pull more from the Dems or the Repubs? Sure would be fun if they ran, as they'd keep the national debate very interesting!
