    I sometimes think about Ralph Nader, and the overall balance sheet of lives he is directly responsible for saving, vs lives that he is (I guess indirectly) responsible for ruining and/or ending due to spoiling the 2000 election.

    Interesting thought experiment. I guess.

      I admire the hell out of him, even if I resent what happened in the 2000 election. He really did stand for what he believed in.
