While interest in the "debate" was near an all-time low, Nader has seen a "surge" of support following the debate where third-party candidates were excluded. |

Get Nader Five Percent |

Obviously, Nader's non-stop campaigning is paying off and is likely to get him the five percent of the popular vote he will need to get the Green Party federal matching funds for 2004. Your vote and any money you give to the Nader campaign will be well spent as it will mean millions of dollars in the future for hundreds of organizations fighting for reform all over the country. I spent $20 to see two Nader appearances in Seattle. That $20 will be put to good use in 2004, provided Nader gets at least five percent. Eventually, we will be able to bypass the Commission on Presidential Debates by running television and radio campaign ads that will reach a mass audience. When that happens, it will be impossible for the mass media to ignore future Green, and dare I say Green-Labor, candidates for public office. Don't waste your vote on Al Gore on November 7!
