Excellent point.
So many commenting look at these occurrences as isolated, believing there's no plan, no strategy to what both Democrats and Republicans are doing. They can't see the forest for the trees. They can't see that both parties' presidential administrations have built upon the abuses of their predecessors -- BushCheney couldn't have done what they did without BillClinton having laid the foundation, and Clinton continued what HW Bush had done. Obama's 'most ardent supporters' need to step back and look at the big picture.
We've gotten through 8 years of BushCheney only to get a Democrat continuing just about all of their policies -- Even going them one better, doing what even BushCheney didn't have the balls to try, like Obama's assertion that a president can indefinitely imprison anyone, including American citizens, and kill them, without due process, without oversight, WITHOUT ANY CRIME OR ACTION AT ALL HAVING BEEN UNDERTAKEN, just because the president believes "they're thinking about it".
Had Nader gotten 5% of the vote, think how much different things would be now. The debates alone would have a transforming effect on our political system. Had Nader won, think how much different things would be now. Does any Democratic voter doubt that Nader would be fighting to uphold the Democratic platform (unlike the current head of the Democratic Party, Obama, who is racing to implement Republicans' dreams)?
