Nader is a moron.

Ralph Nader has been a non-entity over the past, oh, eight years. Really he just seems to show up in order to get a few hyper-liberals motivated, then once in a while run for something and get obliterated, only to vanish from whence he came for a few years.

He’s apparently still desperate to be a heavy hitter, otherwise I can’t figure out his little diatribe about Obama and “white guilt”.

“There’s only one thing different about Barack Obama when it comes to being a Democratic presidential candidate. He’s half African-American,” Nader told the paper in comments published Tuesday.

“Whether that will make any difference, I don’t know. I haven’t heard him have a strong crackdown on economic exploitation in the ghettos. Payday loans, predatory lending, asbestos, lead. What’s keeping him from doing that? Is it because he wants to talk white? He doesn’t want to appear like Jesse Jackson? We’ll see all that play out in the next few months and if he gets elected afterwards,” Nader added.

I’m amazed that Nader, of all people, would dive onto the “Obama’s just a safe negro” bandwagon that the right has so effectively inhabited.

But the most disturbing thing is this little thing that kept popping up:

“I mean, first of all, the number one thing that a black American politician aspiring to the presidency should be is to candidly describe the plight of the poor, especially in the inner cities and the rural areas…”

Read that again. The number one thing a black politician should talk about is the poor. Because obviously that’s where the blacks are. They’re scraping for food stamps in the ghettos while us whites are the ones in nice houses with jobs. I’m honestly surprised he didn’t start saying Obama isn’t black enough because he isn’t talking about welfare for single moms and importation prices on watermelons.

The hilarious part is that this all comes out in an effort to prove that it’s Obama’s supporters that are racists, not jerkoffs like Nader and Rush.
