GREEN PARTY: “Definitive Proof Ralph Nader Didn’t Cost Al Gore the Election” / “Al Gore Betrayed Blacks, Progressives and America, Not Ralph Rader” / Jimmy Dore / *MUST WATCH* ☮
The erroneous claim that Ralph Nader cost Al Gore the 2000 election is frequently cited to discredit voting for a 3rd party candidate. It’s nonsense. Here’s why.
Black voters in Florida were purged from voter rolls by the tens of thousands, handing the White House to George Bush. In a sad moment in American History, highlighted in Michael Moore’s Farenheit 911, members of the Congressional Black Caucus rose to voice their opposition but Gore as President of the Senate told them to sit down and shut up, even scoring some cheap laughs.
POLITICAL COMMENTARY: “Elizabeth Warren Attacked Dr. Jill Stein—Jill Responded with FIRE!” / The Humanist Report / Mike Figueredo ☮
Elizabeth Warren made the same mistake many politicians are making: she claimed Jill Stein is helping Donald Trump get elected. That’s right, after running away from the candidate that would easily beat Trump [Bernie] and endorsing the poster child for political corruption [Hillary], Elizabeth Warren is trying to blackmail the progressives she abandoned by attacking the one candidate now standing up for them. Well, she got a response from Jill Stein that she’s probably not going to like too much.
