Questions & Answers

1. What is your position on Iraq and the Middle East?

According to published candidate information.
The current political strategy of pre-emptive war in the Middle East is a disaster for both the American people and the people of the Middle East.

Nader/Gonzalez propose a rapid withdrawal of troops from Iraq. Nader favors a two-state solution and believes that the United States needs to highlight the broad and deep peace movement in Israel and its counterparts among Palestinians and among Americans of the Jewish faith.

2. What is your position on Health Care?

According to published candidate information.
The state of health care in the United States is a disgrace. For millions of Americans it is a struggle between life, health and money. The Nader Campaign supports a single-payer health care plan that replaces for-profit, investor-owned health care and removes the private health insurance industry (full Medicare for all).
