Ralph Nader has announced plans to run again for the US presidency.
The anti-establishment consumer advocate made the announcement in a televised interview on Sunday.
Mr Nader was accused by many Democrats of handing the presidency to George W Bush in the November 2000 elections. He ran again unsuccessfully in 2004.

Complete downer for the Democrats. Lucky for the Republicans Ron Paul is not going independent. I don't know how much impact Nader will have on Obama though as I firmly believe he will win the nomination barring any dirty tricks by the Clinton side. If Obama is the Democratic Nominee Nader is going to have almost null effect but he will provide an extreme outlet.
