General election debates should include third party candidates.

How did we ever end up with a democracy where challengers to the entrenched corrupt political system cannot get to voters without going through the two major parties?

The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) should not include immunity for telecom companies.

First of all, corporations aren't citizens. Second, the President can't order anyone - citizens or corporations - to break the law.

There are not persuasive non-religious reasons for prohibiting abortions.

I don't think government has the proper role in forcing a woman to have a child or forcing a woman not to have a child.

The U.S. should play a somewhat active role in the Israel-Palestine peace process. U.S. pressure should be brought to bear only on the side that resists peace.

"Nader/Gonzalez will side with the strong and courageous Israeli/Palestinian peace movements"
