    Carmen : I couldn't find but 2 of the canddiates? Where are the other candidates. Ralph Nader was actually the only candidate that predicted this months ago and he was ridiculed. Bob Barr is also a candidate as is Cynthia McKinney. Nader and Barr are in all but 1 state and fully able to win the election. Where is the statement from them???
