12. You sound like a Nader apologist

You've made no mention of the crucial role Nader played in 2000 with his big "no differences" lie and the $5million GOP financed tv ad campaign that Nader ran in crucial battleground states like Florida that siphoned off enough votes from Al Gore for Bush to be able to get close enough in Florida for the Jeb/Harris/GOP controlled SCOTUS cabal to steal the election.. You also don't understand that the U.S. constitution does not give the SCOTUS role in Presidential elections. You also did not acknowledge all of the points in my previous post that exposed your lack of knowledge about Florida election law. In conclusion, you don't understand that had the U.S. constitution and Florida election law been followed as required, Bush would not have been able to steal the election in Florida. The Bush election theft roadmap is now the election theft roadmap that Trump is now following. The bottom line is that you've never worked on a Florida election campaign so you have no idea what happened there. In contrast, I spent years working on Florida election campaigns so I know exactly what happened there in 2000. Please don't think you know more about what happened in Florida in 2000 than I do. You don't and you never will. Our country has suffered terribly because of the Bush campaign's all-out assault on American democracy in Florida in 2000. It's time for you to come to grips with this ugly truth. Our country would've taken important steps towards dealing with the threat of human caused climate change had the will of the people been allowed to prevail in 2000.
