Hi there,

The job of a journalist is to go to where the silence is — especially when those in power seek to silence voices that question or challenge power. That is what we do at Democracy Now! day in and day out, and we're able to do it because of financial support from people like you — people who trust and depend on our independent reporting. If you believe that freedom of speech and freedom of the press are essential to the functioning of a democratic society, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Nader Responds to Mccain/Bradley Withdrawals

StoryMarch 10, 2000
Media Options

    Without a single primary win, Bill Bradley dropped out of the Democratic presidential campaign yesterday and said that he will support Al Gore despite their sometimes bitter rivalry.

    Bradley ended his campaign as Republican Senator John McCain suspended his run against Texas Governor George W. Bush. Both Gore and Bush emerged from the Super Tuesday primaries with their nominations assured. While Bradley telephoned Gore to pledge his support, McCain has not said if he will back Bush’s candidacy.

    As the campaign moves to a contest between Bush and Gore, today we look at another presidential contender whose candidacy is not being covered by the mainstream media: Green Party candidate and consumer advocate Ralph Nader.

    Guest:

    • Ralph Nader, Presidential candidate for the Green Party and consumer advocate. Call: 202.265.4000.
