…

Who cares because YES WE DID!

Ralph Nader is a hater!!!!!!!!! He and Hannibal need to Alaska!

Typo. Meant move to Alaska!

No one cares what Nader is talking about.

No surprise, these so-called “white progressives” like Ralph Nader and Hillary Clinton pretend to understand the needs of black people, but use racism to push their agendas when the going gets tough.

Nobody is checking for him. Whatever!!

Look at the channel that he callled him UT on.

Nader is a f**king Arab so who cares what he says. He is a Gay Arab that no American ever voted for anyway. I hope the israelis wipe the floor up with them.

That was crazy! The FOX guy really stood-up for OBAMA!!!!

Ralph Nader has no voice. His saltiness stems from his repeated losses in the race for presidency. Talk about a sore loser.

I’m suprised that a FOX NEWS reporter checked him like that..we all know how fox can be, but damn he really tore him a new asshole

I didn’t even know Nader was still in the race. It is very sad to see him go down this road of divisiveness, considering that he did have a great career as a consumer advocate.

Does Nadar even know what an Uncle Tom is…STFU!!

@Hannibal – I see you making an appearance!

The Devil is a Liar!!!!!!

Yes We Can!!!!!!! Obama ’08!!!!

Dont trust whitey!

Love 6am

Didn’t know Lebanese = pasty…

THAT REPORTER KICKED HIS ASS..I SEE HANNIBAL DOESNT HAVE MUCH 2 SAY..(LMAO)

Loser. Loser. Screw Ralph Nader. Screw him. I used to have respect for the bastard, but after this– he can go to hell.

@this i know

I cosign w/ you, but I thought he was Lebanese. Either way you’re right. But I give props to Shepard Smith for checking him. The tide must be changing right quick over at Fox News!

ok, who is ralph nader again?

YES WE DID!!!!

Like anyone cares what his cock-eyed @zz has to say….perhaps he should put a little more effort into getting that blinking disorder fixed!

who cares!

All my hot and sincere friends on == A g e l e s s mate.com == support Obama!! and he finally won!

Congrats! God bless America!!Now I believe!!

dats a surprising defense coming from people from fox news

The reporter checked his wack ass..Obama yall : )

I think it was an excellent way to start by putting people in there place who don’t recognize of respect that BARACK OBAMA IS THE PRESIDENT OF THE USA… In the end we all no that without GOD nothing is possible. AND GOD WILL OPEN DOORS NO MAN CAN CLOSE AND CLOSE DOORS NO MAN CAN OPEN. He opened one people for a change to come our way YES WE CAN!

1. Cynthia McKinney was the Green Party candidate, not Nader. Get your facts straight.

2. Nader genuinely cares about poor people. Don’t bash him. He has over $3 million in assets, which he uses to fund charities, while only living on about $25,000 per year.

Not wasting my time! Today is about CHANGE and HOPE for us, our children and future grand children..

Haters will be haters!! BUT this is our time! our moment!!!!!

Yes, WE DID!!!!! Obama/Biden!!

Thats what sore losers do

@ Hannibal

what do you have to say for yourself?

LETS NOT FALL INTO THIS TRAP…LET’S JUST PRAY FOR HIS POOR MISERABLE SOUL!!!

I am an Independent, but Ralph Nader needs to sit down.

Yeah, whatever, Ralphie. Moving on…

What a joke! Hott reporter dude let him have it! I never knew FOX had it in them! -thanks

YES WE DID!

Nader is just telling it like it is. Come on, Obama is the biggest uncle tom in history. Why else would white people “put him in” office? Youre foolish if you think your vote matters that much. He’s the biggest house negro ever, nuff said. Obama is the first black president, but on the other side of the token, lets “hope” he is not the biggest sell out ever!

_________________

unreal

would he have been called an uncle tom if he had lost the election -

would you have called him a sell out if he had lost election

white ppl is not the only ones that put him in office

blacks/jews/indian every race also put him there u know

bottom line call obama whatever you want to call him at the end of the day HE WILL BE RUNNING THIS COUNTRY that is called the united states of america -

get over it

loser….we dont care!!! hehe

I’m surprised Nadar got even 1% of the vote. People who vote for him can’t be serious. I saw him on the ballot and thought it was a mistake.

That,s the kind of people we need to vote out of office, People like Ralph Nader are like snakes they feed off of hatered spreading their poison, We as a united people just sent all of them a good message on Nov 4th that we will not stand for people (Leaders) like him anymore. Renew your hearts, you are only hurting yourself when you can,t love yor brother….

Don’t drive traffic to Fox News. Let’s LEARN something. YES WE CAN not participate in a network that does more harm than good to black people. BYE FOX NEWS!

This is not even worthy of a response.

He barely got 1% of the vote. that alone speaks volumes…

HE SOUNDS LIKE A SORE LOSER TO ME. WHY DID HE FEEL THE NEED TO USE THE WORD UNCLE TOM? i STILL DIDN’T UNDERSTAND THE CONTEXT OF WHICH HE USED IT. HE CARES ABOUT POOR PEOPLE BUT THAT STILL SOUND DISCRIMNATORY TO ME.

“you have been reduced to irrelevant” – Fox News reporter

ROFLMFAO!!!! get em!! this is the unity I’m talking about. brother backing brotha

That was excellent, and on Fox News wow!!! I’m glad that the interviewer called Nadar out on his racist comment!!! Dude straight cut him off!!!LOL

Yes! Ralph Nader is right. He didn’t say anything wrong. Fox is only trying to incite him and the people of this country who are too ignorant to see past their deception. Obama can either be a man for America, or a man for the corporate conglomerates that currently run this country. And so far, as we saw with Wall Street and Fannie Mae and the other being bailed out, the country nor the government is for the people. We fell for their stupid 700 billion dollar bail out of corporate america, the same arses that take your money every chance they get. So Ralph Nader spoke the truth like no one else seems willing to do.

People are STILL trying to divide us as a nation. NOT TODAY HATERS!!! Today, America is FINALLY a nation for ALL people!

@NIKKI….

I respect your support for nader. But no matter what he thinks or feels. You cant deny that calling the man an uncle tom is indeed irrelevant. He could have received better respect for his statement if he didnt come off as a childish sore loser.

no matter how someone feels about Obama, calling him a uncle tom is pathedic, no matter how you try to sugar coat it.

Obama 08′

Fukk u Nater …………hahaha your hurting…yes we can and we did

Shep was like, “Really?”

Nater is the true Nigg** now because his ignorant! I luv all Obamas suppporters .I hope Naters heart doesnt stop beating due to or victory!!!awe poor baby

That reporter is the shyte………..son!

Please don’t have a heart attack Nater due to our victory …………yes we can and we did 44th Pres. Bite that ……….lolololol

F*ck Nader.

WE DID IT!!!!!!!!!

Obama needs to eat, he’s getting too skinny.

Actually, Nader is correct. Obama is a slave to the corporations, which is why the FOX reporter defended him because he needs that Obama paycheck.

Obama supported the bailout, which the people do not benefit from but we must pay for it. Nader does not, hence making Obama like every other politician who works in favor of big business.

well, black ppl everybody get a bottle of water

and walk around with it – why, because there is gonna be a lot of salty crackers walking around.

ARE YOU PEOPLE INSANE!?!?!

just cuz nader used the term “uncle tom” that doesnt mean he was being racist.

and that news reporter was a total dick to him that whole time..

oh god, you people are so simple minded, actually read what nader has to say, he wants obama to step up and be a great leader and not fall back on his race and go soft on the hard issues

but fox news whats to turn that around and attack him for that because FOX NEWS IS PISSED THAT MCCAIN DIDNT WIN so they are gonna make trouble where ever they can…

so stop all your insults and YOUR RACIST REMARK ABOUT NADER, why is it ok to call nader a gay arab or whatever you people have been saying up there in the other comments… you are no better than repulicans that called obama a terrorist extremist…

so wise-up people, we have a great oppourtunity for change, don’t mess it up by continuing your close-minded hate

What is Nader Hater talking about?! That fool is crazy! Well, they hated Jesus too…..

@davey

U must have missed the whole interview. Cuz ur lost.

@davey

ummm…i don’t know what planet you live on but calling someone an uncle tom is racist. Maybe you didn’t get that memo…i don’t know.

I wonder if Obama will have the balls to stand up to Ben Bernanke and the crooks at the Federal Reserve………….

that reporter let him have it… good for him and fox… it IS a new day. LOL

@Redd – You just mad because you voted green and they lost..LOL!

haha… hannibal got nothing to say but DOTS

I used to admire Nader but a couple of his comments during the campaign and now this statement has reduced this man legacy to ‘irrelevant’. And, he knows damn well that he shouldn’t used the term “Uncle Tom.” He lived through Jim Crow and understands the historical context and how that word was used to emasculate black men. Damn, Ralph…I can’t believe you went out like that…

Illuminate Truth

“I wonder if Obama will have the balls to stand up to Ben Bernanke and the crooks at the Federal Reserve………….”

If he does he better avoid convertibles and grassy knolls. Jus sayin.

@Redd – Okay …but you sound a little salty….just sayin

I understand where Nader is coming from though. It’s our job to hold Obamas feet to the fire. He did single out the middle class as the only group he’s our here for. The poor need just as much help as we do.

I think that everybody is looking at the fact that this Arab guy called Obama an Uncle Tom. Had it been one of us saying it, it would not have been such a bid deal. Fox was not really taking up for Obama, but rather putting a microscope on the word Uncle Tom to spark racial controversy. Please don’t fall for it folks.

In defense of Hannibal he did have his right to vote how he saw fit whether we agreed with it or not. it’s called : democracy.

anyway nothing can stop the flow of pride right now. let the work begin.

Damn! Nader just went from “irrelevant” in 2008 to “end of career” in one tv interview. His timing was not very good because America is still swooning and until the honeymoon ends, words like uncletom will be considered the equivalent of “unpatriotic” during the 9/11 era.

Some of yall sound really ignorant. You need to wake up because there’s a lot of stuff going on that you never see in the media. The media is designed to take your focus off the real issues at hand.

Whats a pasty ass anyway? is that like pastry?

@Redd Tony aka Earth Sign

I wonder if Obama will have the balls to stand up to Ben Bernanke and the crooks at the Federal Reserve………….

The last man in a position of authority who sought to challenge them ended up being assassinated. You think he is willing to take that same risk?

Da Truff….that’s hot. Who ever said Hillary is a racist need not do so. Ralph Nader is a poor excuse for a man, let alone an American. He collected 1% of the vote, that will be decreased to half by day’s end. He like so many others will be bitter, he will indeed need apologize and get on the boat because America’s going to sail with or without him.

THERE’S YOUR WONDERFUL INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE FOR THE GREEN PARTY @ Redd and anyone else who decided to THROW THEIR VOTE AWAY…. HA HA losers!

I know the Green Party and the Independents are different before you start getting all professor of political science on my ass.

Don’t Hate-Congradulate!!!

@ Nicole

I’m not saying that it would have been okay for one of us to say it. What I’m saying is that if it were one of us, you wouldn’t have even seen it in the media. There is a reason why Nader was on that show and a reason why he said Uncle Tom. You’ve got to see the bigger picture sweetheart, not just the one they show you.

And clearly you don’t know your history because Obama is actually the 52nd pres of this nation, and certainly not the first “black” president.

The guy said that Nader was reduced to irrelevant but I think he already knew that.

I think the word “Uncle Tom” should bother the “Fox news Network” more than it should bother any other person in America, or media outlet. Fox deserves to hear the word “Uncle Tom” over and over and over again. “YOU BETCHA”

Redd Tony aka Earth Sign,

I JUST HAVE A QUESTION AND I’M NOT TRYING TO BASH YOU OR ANYTHING JUST TRYING TO UNDERSTAND YOUR VIEW. IN WHAT CONTEXT CAN THE WORD “UNCLE TOM” BE USED WITHOUT THE TIES TO NEGATIVITY AND RACE? tHE ORIGIN OF THE WORD FROM WHAT I KNOW SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. HE COULD HAVE EASILY SAID SOMETHING LIKE “ADVOCATE” OR IF HE WANTED TO GO EXTREME SAY “DEVIL’S ADVOCATE” THAT’S JUST MY OPINION. i’M TRYING TO UNDERSTAND HOW THIS WORD CAN BE USED IN ANY OTHER CONTEXT BESIDES ITS HISTORICAL CONTEXT.

sorry ms greene, but maybe you missed it on this site when the old civil rights guard took their shots at obama during the infant stages of his campaign and got LIT up on this site. the word uncle tom is not tolerated from any corner. sorry.

i would, however still like to ask you the reason for nader being on fox and why he called obama an uncle tom, since you do seem to be so clear on the subject. can you enlighten us?

y’all missing the point, Nader wasn’t being bitter, he is just challenging Obama to not fall into the normal trappings of all prior presidents, controlled by big money corporations. y’all acting like Obama winning has fixed all our problems when he ain’t done jack yet. until someone, black, white or any color does something different, our country will never change.

oh yeah, and if you could shed some light on the 8 presidents we don’t know about, that would be appreciated too…..

Please note that Nader is NOT a Green.

______________________________

Well Said..I concur

Somebody sounds a little bitter but that shouldn’t be a surprise coming from a white man in America who has run for president more than once and lost. He even sounded bitter about Obama when he was on Bill Maher’s show a couple of weeks back. SMH

Redd Tony aka Earth Sign,

oh ok I agree with you. I don’t watch fox news anyways. They have always been known as a very racist channel. Nobody can really defend that word in its most simplest form. The word was irrelevant in the context which it was used. He blatantly said that to offend someone and that’s pretty much the jist of it. We take English, grammer, and public speaking courses for a reason. He ignored that lastnite.

@roscoe…

i think everyone understands what you are saying and it’s good to hold him accountable for that. but there is such a significance in calling a black person an uncle tom… even an uncle sam. would he have called bill clinton an uncle tom if he sold out the american people by helping out wall street? he couldn’t have b/c that racial slur is for black folks that sell out(i know you know that) this is a racist comment… please focus on the attack that was being rendered at the time of a historically important moment. people are already trying to dismiss the fact that he is black. as a people it is beyond important to let the world know that black people are very diverse and if you identify as one but do not fall into the stereotypes perpetuated by white media you CAN NOT be considered “not black” by whites or blacks. focus man.

Ralph Nader is getting nuttier and nuttier in his old age. I’m an environmentalist and I used to think that a lot of what Nader said and stood for made sense. I think that senility has set in on him. Damn Shame. Oh well!

Open your eyes people! You all need to ask yourself, why Fox “News”, shortly after Obama wins, decides the most important use of their air time is to queue up Ralph Nader and play his Uncle Tom comment. What was their point? Don’t you realize it was to let Nader criticize Obama for them? Why not just cover the victory celebration like the other networks. There will be time tomorrow to hold Obama accountable and critique his work.

If you look on Wikipedia, here is the definition of Uncle Tom: “It is commonly used to describe black people whose political views or allegiances are considered by their critics as detrimental to blacks as a group.” Nader has been vocal on those issues where he feels Obama isn’t representing the blacks that are poor. He could have said it more diplomatically. Why didn’t Fox have Sarah Palin come on and repeat her innuendo that Obama is a terrorist? Fox only had Nader on during the campaign to try and drum up votes for Nader that would take away votes for Obama.

Fox “News” is playing you all like a fiddle and you are letting them

Fox “News” is the sore loser. I hope President Obama becomes the best president ever, but people like Nader need to hold his feet to the fire and not let him surrender to corporate lobbyist.

Redd Tony aka Earth Sign,

I feel you. I’m an independent voter. I can truly care less about what party anyone belongs to. The point is whose policies make sense and would help this nation in more ways than one. To me the winner of this election deserved it. America and the rest of the world showed that.

Mr. Blotz,

I could’ve have said it better. That’s why people need to watch their tongues ie: nader, jackson, etc. They should’ve replayed Palin’s “sambo” comment.

Everyone seems to be uninformed. Number one. Obama is an American who is African (Kenyan) but not an AFRICAN-AMERICAN, meaning he is not a descendant of slaves, not that this is important we are all black, but calling someone an Uncle Tom, whose ancestors were NEVER slaves is just stupid. Not all black people in America are descendants of slaves, we have our own histories, like Obama. Number 2. All you disillusion people crying about the great policies of the Independent and Green Party, study the trends of third and fourth party politics in a nation much older than the U.S, Great Britain. History and research demonstrate that third and fourth parties are far more likely to make promises to the poor and adopt more radical polices than those in serious contention for the white house. I will bet my life if the Independent or Green Party won serious office, they would back the bail out and the middle class policies like every other party….stop being so disillusion. Dont believe me…read up on the Liberal Democrats..they were the third party in power in the U.K before the World Wars. Since then, they have not held office and have become the minority party and right on cue all their policies are now liberal and target the poor. It easy to create a Utopia standing outside the gates!!!

@NINA

whateva…

well, while it has always been nader’s responsibility to check both parties and their candidates, the idea that he would have to resort to an attack of racial nature only underscores both his dwindling relevance or his own perceived lack of it. there are a million of insults that he could have thrown out there, but that one was sad.

he hurt himself and his cause with that one. he knows who the audience is when he appears on fox news, and he chose a curious audience to choose such wording in front of. the fact that it backfired, and even fox rejected his pathetic attempt at striking a chord with their own base only highlights how far removed from relevancy he is.

I know certain words and terms are “hot button” words for us folk, but he didn’t explicitly call Obama that. Poor choice of words, perhaps, but the underlying point is more important. Will Obama really do anything for black people, especially those of us in the hood? That remains to be seen. A brother in the office is a step in the right direction, but a hell of a lot more has to happen than that for any real progress.

Quick point, Obama talked a hell of a lot about alternative energy, but his campaign was run by a nuclear power consultant and one of his biggest contributors was an nuclear power company. Historically, money talks and presidents spend their terms repaying those who paved their path into office.

Be Real….

Africans too were slaves (that were not part of the slave trade). Not just Africans that later became African Americans.

Some Africans were enslaved in Africa. Now I dont know if his family was or not, but Obama does represent African Americans and I do believe he would be just as offended as anybody else. But I agree with you that it was stupid to refer to him as such.

A GREAT DAY IN OUR NATION!

FOR THE FIRST TIME I AM TRUELY PROUD OF THIS COUNTRY WE CALL HOME!!!

burn ‘em

Roscoe Smokey

y’all missing the point, Nader wasn’t being bitter, he is just challenging Obama to not fall into the normal trappings of all prior presidents, controlled by big money corporations. y’all acting like Obama winning has fixed all our problems when he ain’t done jack yet. until someone, black, white or any color does something different, our country will never change.

Yup Yup!!!

Nader if full of hate from thousands of years of being denied the presidency. He has grown bitter. His views do have a point but he more hateful than ever.

Call me Crazy, but this man is an IDIOT !!

I am sorry to be a kill joy but not every one around the world is happy he was elected. I am not happy because I really listened to him talk about change and hope and make promises he can not keep. He stress about the highest deficit in history but purpose plans that will add to it. No I am not an American nor am i white. But what a lot of people fail to realize is that what ever decisions he make will affect not only America but a majority of Caribbean countries and other countries around the world because things are going to get a lot worse before the get any better. His position is really still not known. Also he changes his beliefs to please people when ever he was called out on statements made. God forbid he makes a decision and other world leaders take an offense. Any one who was educated or works in an accounting or economic field will let you know up front that his plans don’t add up and will only hurt the economy more. I too was waiting for the day to see the first elected black President of USA but he is not the one. I can be wrong but I believe blacks stuck to voting color to make history and for promises that seem appealing to them but in reality it only mislead the black population. Like any other politician he said what he felt to get him elected. His plans he promises made will not come through and he will change them over his time in office to save face but by then it would be too late and that would hurt the chances of there being any another black President. (If my English seems a little off I apologize)

Fox News is not our friend. Infact, none of the mainstream media are our friend.

Stop being so excited because a black man became the President.

I’m proud of Barack Obama but what Ralph Nader said was correct.

Lets see what kind of change Obama brings. Time will tell.

One more thing:

When Fox news denounces or ignores someone, something should go off in your brain. Remember – these main stream media networks are here to keep us distracted from the real issues.

The majority of people have been so distracted by ‘race’ and ‘black man running for prez’ – they miss everything else going on in the world.

What Nader said was correct because there is such a thing as NWO. There is such a thing as central bankers – and they do control the majority of our politicians … INCLUDING PRESIDENTS!!!

This is not a free country, people… know that.

Obama wouldn’t have won if he didn’t even slightly cater to the needs of the elite. And we know that a lot of his campaign money came from large corporations.

FYI – Here are some items to keep focus on:

1. The Federal Reserve – Research this heavily.

2. New World Order

3. Russia, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Venezuela

4. The ECONOMY – Do you really think we’re in a free market system? Believe this: a group of private people, unknown to us, control the ‘free market’ system.

5. The AMERO

well thats it for now.

For all you Nader supporters out there, answer me this: What exactly does Ralph Nader do in between crashing elections every four years? At least Ross Perot had a job lol! Nader is like McCain, a once honorable man who sold out for fame and an RNC paycheck. He pops up every 4 years ranting and raving, and when the election is over, he quietly goes home to his mansion in Ohio, and the people continue to suffer. Thanks for the seatbelts, but that was in 1963…what else ya got?

In Nader’s defense, he did not mean Uncle Tom in the way one may think. He was simply asking will he stand for the people while in office, or will he cower like so many politicians before.

don’t focus comment……..listen to what Nader says

cunt

FYI HANNIBAL IS A WHITE GUY WHO PUT SOME RANDOM BLACK GUYS PIC ON THE BLOG IN ORDER TO DISGUISE HIMSELF………..COWARD!!!!!

Hay Hannibal, I’ll bet you feel really stupid right about now huh? Looser!

Obama is the “anti-Christ.” Hahaha…(just kidding) or…am I…?

I’m surprised at Nader.

WOW !!!!

I’m truly surprised there are people who are actually comfortable with the fact that Nader used the term “Uncle Tom” in referring to what Obamas stance would be concerning “Big Business”.

THE INFERENCE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN MADE HAD OBAMA NOT BEEN CONSIDERED TO BE BLACK, THEREFORE THE USE OF THE TERM “UNCLE TOM” WAS EXTREMELY RACIST and INFLAMMATORY.

As someone above pointed out, “He lived through Jim Crow and understands the historical context and how that word was used to emasculate black men”.

How anyone could not understand that that was a historically racist analogy is beyond me?.

Making reference to a “black man” being an “uncle tom” is the equivalent of saying that he has bowed down to the “white power structure” and has forsaken those he considers his people for his own gain. Basically a “Sell Out”.

Ralph Nader has been around long enough to know the impact of the statement, so I can only question why he chose to use the term.

Ralph Nader spoke the truth. We shouldn’t Deify Obama. Like he said this isn’t Hollywood politics. Don’t be surface cause Obama is Black.

salty…need i say more??????

Wow I’m still in shock!! I still can’t believe we have a black president!! I am sooooo happy

@1morepleez

The first eight presidents were:

John Hanson- First “black”(*Moor) (1781-82)

Elias Boudinot – (1782-83)

Thomas Mifflin (1783-84)

Richard Henry Lee (1784-85)

John Hancock (1785-86)

Nathan Gorman (1786-87)

Arthur St. Clair (1787-89)

Cyrus Griffin (1788-89)

Then there was George Washington

There is so much of our history, beliefs and knowledge that have been hidden from us for centuries.

*You can’t believe the story that we were all slaves brought over here from Africa. That’s a lie. We were in America before the Europeans, before Columbus supposedly discovered America.

Research!! We are not black, African American, Afro American or negroes. We are Moors. All “african” people in the world are Moors and Muurs. You’ve got to research!!

You can’t take what other people say as gospel. You have to research on your own to find the truth. It’s right in front of your eyes, if only you’d open them.

nader is a LOSER. reduced to irrelevancy. and so is anyone that’s up here defending him. Obama is the president, and there’s nothing you can do about it. get over yourselves and deal with it.

OBAMA ’08

***Correction***

Arthur St. Clair (1787-88)

Cyrus Griffin (1788-1789)

Nader is an Independent, not representing the Green party.

WHAT NADER IS SAID IS TRUE. HE QUESTIONS WHETHER OBAMA CAN BE YOUR AMERICAN HERO, OR JUST UR AVG. POLITICIAN WHO WORKS WITH THESE BIG CORPORATIONS TO HELP THEM BE SECURED FINANCIALLY. THATS ALL HE SAYING. BUT BIAS MEDIA JOURNALIST ARE TAKING IT OUT OF CONTEXT, AND INSTEAD OF ASKING HIM LIKE A TRUE ETHICAL JOURNALIST to EXPLAIN YOURSELF MORE AND WHY YOU U USED THE TERM “UNCLE TOM” RATHER THEN ANOTHER WORD OR ADJECTIVE. BUT NO HE HAD TO INSULT NADER, WHO I AM SORRY BOYS & GIRLS HAS BEEN CONCERNED FOR CONSUMERS (YES YOU THE BUYERS) FOR THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS.

DONT LOOK AT THE RACE OF THE GOVERN BUT LOOK AT THE TRACK RECORD. SO FORGET THAT OBAMA IS BLACK, AND LOOK AT THE REAL QUESTION IS THAT BEING PRESENTED, CAN OBAMA GOVERN THIS COUNTRY THE RIGHT WAY OR WELL HE BE FILLED OF FALSE PROMISES JUST LIKE OTHER POLITICANS HAVE DONE BEFORE?

obama is not only just black he is white, and reprsents for other minorities around america. so dont look so much in to skin color, but what’s actually skin deep. and dont criticize nader for being a arab, if others were just saying that obama was a stupid african hmm people well be axing the people who said those comments. stop defining ppl my there race and more by their character and maybe we can stop this racism and discrimination that keeps circulating our country…hmm i wonder for what reasons? read your comments and the answer hopefully well come to you.

hillary should of been on the ballot and should of won.

who cares about that ole coon (Ralph Nader)….he looks like he’s blind in his left eye…cause that right eye blinked atleast 200 times in those 4 mins…dayum him! DAYUM DAYUM DAYUM!!!!!!!!

Will Obama grant clemency to Mumia Abu Jamal, Mutulu Shakur, Assata Shakur, Leonard Peltier and other political prisoners?

Will Obama grant amnesty to all non-violent drug offenders?

Will Obama decriminalize drugs?

Will Obama repeal the Taft-Hartley anti-union law?

Will Obama provide citizens with free health care and schools?

Will Obama open up public funding & debates to 3rd party candidates?

Will Obama completely pull out of the Iraq & Afghanistan?

Will Obama indict Bush/Cheney for impeachable crimes?

Will Obama remove sanctions off Cuba and normalize relations?

I don’t believe Barack Obama has the testicular fortitude to do any of this.

I will give him credit for caring about the poor….

he just sounded old and bitter but i get his point….

this can be a gift and a curse for obama….

these crackers can’t wait to see a black man fall…

and he’s walking right into a damn recession….

Yes we did…. im happy that my great grand ma live o see the first black president…

@ Phoenix (home of McCain) – Are you saying that McCain would have done all of the above?

@In a Minefield (with Clown Shoes On

No, McCain is a relic of the Reagan era. A lot of Nader’s politics are a hell of a lot more progressive than Obama’s and many other Democrats. As a black man, I was one of the few blacks (who isn’t a republican) that didn’t jump up and down or cry for an Obama victory. Mainly, because I never drunk Obama’s Kool-Aid. The Republicans and Democrats should fuse together and call themselves the Business Party. The Republicrats/Demopublicans are nothing but a bunch of devils. Only a select few are progressives and Obama is not one of them.

Barack Obama did not win. Big Business did. Black people will find that out in years to come.

Obama mentions the poor/working poor everyday. Hell he organized in poor communities. If you want to read his policies, check the web site. Listen to his speeches. Nader may have had a point to be made but when you use race baiting terms, no one listens. Do you suggest that we should all look past the comment? I remember when Obama called to apologize to a female reporter because he called her “sweetie”. The difference between Nader and Obama is class…oh and he acutally will be President. Barack my world!

I’m sure black people solely voted for Obama based on his policy positions (Yeah, right). If white people voted that strongly for McCain, I am sure that “movement” would be called something else. I am sure white people who propped up the black vote did so, not to be “part of history” and to exorcise the inheritance of a post-colonial guilt complex. You cannot honestly believe that if it were a white man with Obama’s complete lack of accomplishment (and was a member of a racist church and had the associations he had), he would have made it through the primaries. To be FAIR, a three-legged dog could have defeated the Republicans this year. You only had to look at the news anchors and pundits blubbering in their tears to know that America became a far sadder place. A place where AN INDIVIDUAL (not a black man) cannot be judged based on his merits for the position, but only chosen for his genetic ancestry. You people do not see him as a man, who began backpedalling (aka “lying”) in his victory speech about how he’ll need two terms to accomplish what he promised during his campaign would be done with the first 100 days of his presidency. But you’ll give him a pass. John McCain was a poor candidate as well, but at least he sacrificed himself for his country and knew the true meaning of “honor”, something Obama could never hope to understand. Again, you all voted against Bush as a symbol, and rightfully so. But most people did not register a protest vote against McCain the individual as much as they registered a vote symbolically against the Republican party and Bush. People could not see McCain for the INDIVIDUAL he was, and his record of working across party lines. They were too caught up in the symbolism of Obama. Obama himself even said “t I serve as a blank screen on which people of vastly different political stripe project their own views”. Become a symbol and you become EVERYTHING to Americans. Well when it comes to the next four years- prepare to be at best, disappointed, and at worst, have your lives fall further into ruin.

Let’s not be ignorant here, Nadar is a good man who has always put the best interests of the people first. He did not call Obama an uncle Tom. Congratz to Obama, in 2008 we took the country back.

huh?

oooohh and fuk Nater

ooooooooooo and fuk Nater ok ….

@ pheonix nither did Bush..ok and I feel what your saying but plz..just let the man do his thing ……..damn 1 blk president out of 43 and people gooooo crazy !!!!!!

My bet! he is the 2nd blk President the first was John Hanson…check the history son!!!!Me and msgreene MBA know it……….

Malcolm X, Huey P. Newton, Fred Hampton, Marcus Garvey, Stokely Carmichael, W.E.B. Du Bois and some others must rolling over in their graves at this farce.

Like Dr. Martin Luther King told Harry Belafonte before he passed. “I fear my people are integrating into a burning house.” I have that same feeling today.

Be Real!!

Everyone seems to be uninformed. Number one. Obama is an American who is African (Kenyan) but not an AFRICAN-AMERICAN, meaning he is not a descendant of slaves, not that this is important we are all black, but calling someone an Uncle Tom, whose ancestors were NEVER slaves is just stupid. Not all black people in America are descendants of slaves, we have our own histories, like Obama. Number 2. All you disillusion people crying about the great policies of the Independent and Green Party, study the trends of third and fourth party politics in a nation much older than the U.S, Great Britain. History and research demonstrate that third and fourth parties are far more likely to make promises to the poor and adopt more radical polices than those in serious contention for the white house. I will bet my life if the Independent or Green Party won serious office, they would back the bail out and the middle class policies like every other party….stop being so disillusion. Dont believe me…read up on the Liberal Democrats..they were the third party in power in the U.K before the World Wars. Since then, they have not held office and have become the minority party and right on cue all their policies are now liberal and target the poor. It easy to create a Utopia standing outside the gates!!!

—————————————————

The “Liberal Democrats” were not “the third party in power in the U.K before the World Wars” since they didn’t exist before the 1988. Their predecessors, the Liberal Party, and the Conservative party were the two main political parties in the UK before the rise of the Labour Party.

Obama’s ancestry doesn’t exempt him from being called an uncle tom as there is no precise definition of the term unless it’s based on the characterization on Uncle Tom in Harriet Beecher Stowe’s novel. Plenty of Africans familiar with the term use it to refer to their countrymen who sucked up to their colonial masters.

The real test of whether or not Obama’s an uncle tom is what he will do to address discrimination that specifically disadvantages blacks. Will he simply sit back, scared of upsetting white voters, the mainstream media and corporate interests? Or, as well as “governing for all”, will he actually tackle the disgracefully practises of the previous US regimes? What will he do on issues like the biased criminal justice system, death penalty, ex-cons voting rights and congressional representation for DC residents amongst many others? On foreign will he continue his proposed blanket support for racist Israel or now he’s been elected will he stop sucking up to the jewish lobby? Only time will tell.

Lets stay focus and unite as one people and ignore the Naders’ of the world.

is it just me or does Nader look like Mr. Montgomery Burns?

Sit yur ho ass down Mr Burns! Hi Hater!

Unfortunately, folks he is asking a valid question. It came out really bad but he is basically asking will Obama stand up to the NWO. Its a very real threat and many have lost their lives standing up against them. Kennedy being one and possibly MLK. NWO is a illegal group that has infiltrated to the highest echelons of govt. and fed by the IRS, Federal Reserve and Zionist that want New World Order. All countries under global rule. The writings are on the wall and some of the other countries are trying to fight against this NWO. Right now it is Russia/Georgia conflict, Soon to be Columbia. Not to mention what is going on with Afganistan an Iraq. Nader and Cynthia McKinnley (Prior black Congress woman) are well aware of the threats and probably Obama is aware also. Nader wants to make sure he does not become a puppet to this very dangerous group. Research NWO and you’ll get the bigger picture. By the way, I voted Obama and am a black american but may have voted on the Nader/McKinnley ticket if they would have had a larger following. I chose not to dilute my vote and have the Republicans continue to rape this country and take away our rights one law at a time and conducting war with other countries just to steal oil. I love Barrack and hope he will be able to stand his ground.

Mr. Blotz and some others are on point. If some can look past the word “uncle tom”, they could see that Fox is trying to insight instead of admonish Naders remarks. Can’t you guys see this? Have they ever backed Obama? No. Now they are upset because of the word Tom? Give me a break. You folks need to maybe research some more. He has a valid question and Fox playing this cut is to take your mind off the real issues and cause division again. Try not to get played….This is what they want. They don’t want you to hear his message or Ron Paul or Cynthia Mckinney’s….He is not trying to take from Obama, he is trying to challenge him. Hmmm, that said maybe this is why he chose to use this word, to get attention from the Black audience and alert them and Obama that while he is president and made history, the real test will be if he will follow NWO (corporations) = uncle tom or will he be a real champion of the people = uncle sam.

Nader didn’t run under the Green Party you idiot. Yeah free chicken for everyone. Instead of looking for Obama’s handouts go to work.

Nader is a douche bag, but has anybody noticed how the media is now in Cover Your Ass mode, finally doing stories about how Obama has no resume? They know he’s gonna screw up, they don’t want to be accused of pandering to him, even though it’s AFTER the election they bother to have integrity.

OMG, He’s done!!

@ NADERGUY

What he does with his money is irrelevant.

Since when is it respectable or acceptable to refer to anyone using racist terms?

It was uncalled for and I (& many others, I’m sure) believe one of the reasons he said Uncle Tom was because of Obama’s skin color and as an effect people are going to call him a racist. done deal.

Don’t post irrelevant ish and try to call him a saint. SMH

DON’T BE FOOLED PEOPLE, FOX NEWS HAS ALREADY MADE THEIR BED!! Now that a black man is running (soon to be) are they trying to get their act together? No, trying to inflame people, so they can make a point. FOX is not your friend, believe it. They were not defending Obama, not trying to “make nice”, only trying to divide. Play close attention. They played RN and they are playing you.

LMBAO! I LOOOOOOOOVE AMERICA! I get to laugh my ass off for years at the crying babies who couldn’t get enough of their people together to elect the President they wanted.LoL Makes me all tingly inside.Sweet Revenge for so much Hate ;-D You know America…I Love You all.The Hate is why we all have risen up from the ashes of many lives taken to get here.Now we have shown who’s in charge.The Good People!lol i’m just rubbing it in a lil deeper with this mumbo jumbo that’s all lol

Obama is not from slave blood line but his wife side is and that blood runs through the kids and even so they are educated strong and did I say “strong”…..rather he is from Nigeria or not he is black and he is in the white house ………..that is somethin”

All I have to say is Obama put GOD first and everything will work in your favor! It already has just continue to do so! The bible says “the FIRST WILL BE LAST AND THE LAST WILL BE FIRST” so that does it now YOU ARE FIRST. WHY EVERYBODY HAS TO JUDGE MAKES NO SINCE BECAUSE THAT ALSO IS IN THE BIBLE “JUDGE NOT” SO ALL I CAN OFFER IS PRAYER FOR THE LOST ONES HOPING THAT SOON YOU WILL CATCH ON TO JESUS! BE BLESSED IN GOD….. YES WE CAN AND YES WE DID…. SMILE

How can anyone respect our people when we listen to someone like Ralph Nader. And we really need ( though it will take a minute) to stop using derogatory names towards whites as well. It goes both ways.

1. Obama was necessary to quell the people for this next phase in the “agenda”. As is evident by the many responses of people “happy” or “satisfied” by his election.

2.If you truly are a person who is aware of what is approaching you should not waste time arguing with those who are destined for servitude by an apparent contentment with the social order. They were never menat to know, and even if you did convince them most people are cowards at heart and prefer to be dictated then to really be accountable for their community and own lives.

3. If you are biblically astute you know all of this is written and are best recourse is to prepare to the best of our ability. Nov 15 the world financers will be holding the revised Bretton Woods meeting to institute the new currency policy that will probably take effect somewhere between Feb and March. If you have money in your savings see about a currency exchange to Euro or some other foreign capital. When the dollar crashes it could be a designated period time say like a month before they introduce the Amero. So do what you can.

4. Its a little late in the game and even us who know a little are still behind the eight ball so get your paper up while you can, stash your arms, and see about starting some gardens in your backyard and learn how to harvest seeds.

5. Jesus said ” Wide is the road and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many are they that enter therein.” ” But narrow and strait is the way that leads to life, and few are they that find it.” Don’t be surprised at people reactions its to be expected. Just handle your business and pray we survive the storm that is approaching.

Peace and Love to All. My allegiance is to no man or country, for my kingdom is not of this world. Yahweh is sovereign, and Yeshua Mayshayach reigns.

Shalom-alikum. Peace to MsGreenMBA. I know the crown is heavy but hold your head up Queen.

Listen to what the man’s point is instead of getting all exited about the fact that he criticized Obama. And that interview is just a tactic Fox is using to get on your good side.

P.S. there is something wrong with your democracy if there are only two candidates with a shot of getting elected. Nader’s figures says more about America than they do about the man.

You people aren’t thinking. Try it

Uhhhh bad choice of words but Nader is right. You Obamaniacs need to hold his feet to the fire. I will.

f*** dem white ppl der

it sounds like no one has read uncle tom’s cabin. if you think it is derogatory, you must think it would also be derogatory to call some martin luther king jr. or jesus. they all believed the same principles. Uncle Tom was a good christian who refused to sin to escape his own suffering. he trusted his life to god. in the interview I think the reporter is the one who looks like an idiot, he was just trying to get some attention. he wouldn’t even let nader explain himself. I like that nader said he would not reword his question if given the chance. maybe you don’t agree with nader’s views, but you have to respect his honesty.
