Thanks for your reply! Understood that you are not trying to criticize the
Green party. It is interesting that Nader considers this election a
"success" for his party, at least from the point of view that the big
parties are now afraid of what a third party can do to them. At this
point, he is happy that the democrats must now consider accomodating the
greens' agenda to a certain extent. You hit the nail dead on, I think.
