"This country has more problems and injustices than it deserves," Nader said, bemoaning a "democracy gap." Nader, who turns 70 this week, said he wants to "challenge this two-party duopoly."


"There's too much power and wealth in too few hands," he said on NBC's "Meet the Press."


"Washington is now corporate occupied territory," Nader said. "There is now a for-sale sign on most agencies and departments. ... Basically, it's question of both parties flunking."


He decided against running under the banner of the Green Party. Nader's candidacy four years ago has been blamed by many Democrats for costing Al Gore (news - web sites) the election against Bush.


Democratic National Committee (news - web sites) chairman Terry McAuliffe, who has personally urged Nader not to run, said Nader would not have the same impact this time.


"I can tell you Green Party members are all coming into the (Democratic) party saying they want to help us because they know the stakes are so big this time," he said on CBS's "Face the Nation."


"It will be much more difficult for him," McAuliffe said.


Republicans largely have declined to comment on any benefits a Nader candidacy would have for Bush.


"If Ralph Nader runs, President Bush (news - web sites) is going to be re-elected and if Ralph Nader doesn't run, President Bush is going to be re-elected," Republican National Committee (news - web sites) chairman Ed Gillespie said on CBS"s "Face the Nation."


At a Sunday gathering of governors in Washington, former RNC chairman Haley Barbour, now governor of Mississippi said: "It will make less difference than the Democrats fear, but I know they're very nervous about it."


Asked if he was getting into the race to be a spoiler, Nader replied: "A spoiler is a contemptuous term, as if anybody who dares to challenge the two party system .. is a spoiler, and we've got to fight that.."


"Let me say, this is going to be difficult," said Nader, who planned a round of interviews after his announcement. But he also said, "This is not a democracy that can be controlled by two parties in the grip of corporate interests."


Third party candidacies have been a greater part of presidential politics in recent years; businessman Ross Perot (news - web sites) twice ran for president, winning 19 percent of the vote in 1992.


"It's his personal vanity because he has no movement. Nobody's backing him," New Mexico Democratic Gov. Bill Richardson said.


As the Green Party's nominee in 2000, Nader appeared on the ballot in 43 states and Washington, D.C., garnering only 2.7 percent of the vote. But in Florida and New Hampshire, Bush won such narrow victories that had Gore received the bulk of Nader's votes in those states, he would have won the general election

Fuck Nader and his wife!

I have no idea what his platform will be but I'm sure it will be very well built.

you right...
but ill not vote for him

it won't make a difference,
he's not running under the green party so, as an independent, he'll have to buy his way on to every ballot in america and he doesn't have enough $$

When they pull Bin Laden out of a hat it isn't going to matter anyway.
