Ralph Nader: GOP Presidential Debate Failed to Address Real Issues



Former presidential candidate Ralph Nader responds to Wednesday's second Republican debate, saying, "It's pretty embarrassing that this is what they put forward to become the president of the most powerful country in the world." Nader discusses the debate's topics of social media, former President Donald Trump and wealth inequality in America. Nader also calls for the Democratic Party to "stop engaging in candidate suppression" and respect third-party candidates such as Cornel West to run for public office as a constitutional right.

legislation...that occurs in Congressional offices etc. across DC and other places, such as the White House.

The GOP as a honest entity in describing issue(s) and dealing w/ them honestly, will never happen.

The GOP relies way too much on lying, and has done so for so long and so much, that they don't know what the truth is.

He has divided this country as much as Murdoch with his third party interference. Of course he wants to do that again, He enjoys being the spoiler. A puke.
