Ralph Nader on Silencing of Third Parties

by via Democracy Now Saturday, Aug. 30, 2008 at 5:27 PM

Thursday, August 28, 2008 :While Sen. Barack Obama made a surprise appearance at the Democratic National Convention in Denver last night, he was not the only presidential contender in town. Independent candidate Ralph Nader held a rally Wednesday at the University of Denver calling for an end to the corporate control over the presidential debates. When Obama selected Joe Biden to be his running mate, Nader dubbed Biden the "MasterCard Senator" because of his close ties to the credit card industry.

Guest:

Ralph Nader, Independent presidential candidate.

Comment;

Barr, McKinney and Nader represented at rally

by Third parties united for truth!!

Friday Aug 29th, 2008 1:19 PM

From Democracy Now;

"AMY GOODMAN: In fact, it was not only you as a presidential candidate there. Bob Barr was represented in a videotape, and Rosa Clemente, the Green vice-presidential candidate, along with Cynthia McKinney, who is the presidential candidate—



RALPH NADER: Yes.



AMY GOODMAN: Rosa Clemente also spoke. What was the point of your rally last night?



RALPH NADER: The point was, and why we did what almost nobody ever does at the presidential candidacy level, bringing on competitors, so to speak, third-party and independent candidates, is to try to break the grip of this corporation called the Commission on Presidential Debates that the two major parties created in 1987 and control. And they don’t want anyone else on the stage, and that means that there’s no way to get to tens of millions of people, unless you’re a multibillionaire like Perot, no way to get to tens of millions of people, no matter how many states we campaign in, no matter how many giant arenas we fill. It’s less than two percent of what we would reach if we were on just one debate. Now, we’re at six, seven, eight percent in the latest CNN polls—seven percent in Colorado—with no mass mainstream television media."

That's great to hear Nader supporting his fellow third party candidates, as all share the common ground of being excluded and censored from the Democrat/Republican debates..

The next step would be to get Bob Barr, Cynthia McKinney and Ralph Nader together to debate and discuss the issues that Democrats and Republicans are afraid to touch because they fear offending their corporate sponsors!!
