Re: How do you slander with the truth?
CD, Of course it is true that he speaks with clear, precise diction. That is not "talking white". That is talking educated. But what Nader was saying was that he was ignoring the ills of the inner-city -- where his first constituency is -- and that is absurd, in the light of his "Metropolitan Growth for America" lan. it's all about starting by lifting up the cities. You should read that plan (posted here under "5,000 Most Editorials").

Re: you can't call it slander
Xeno, Well, it is not true. He is not half African-American. He is half white and half Kenyan. That makes him all African-American.

you can't call it slander
becaue legally it isn't. and legally you yourself can be called out for slander when you call it slander.
Nader is one of those rare people -- a perfectionist. hard to work for hard to work with -- but higher ideals than almost anybody else.
he made a description is all -- I would guess in response to a question.
