Do you really feel that putting the Democratic ticket in the White House is actually going to help? Do you really think any politicians are going to make a difference? Gore has had 8 years to persuade his mentor to do investigate the state of mental health, and I ask you, are things that much different? I for one think not. It's amazing to me that all of you think electing democrats will "help the cause". They have had it for long enough. Besides that, someone said Nader would help the Republicans cause; just like Ross Perot helped Clinton get in office and we had 8 years of his antics. Guys, face it, all either party is looking for is VOTES right now. As soon as the thing is over, it will be politics as usual in Washington. Get real....
