Had Nader bowed out of the race, the USA would have had a new history in the recent past.

A similar scenario is being played out now with John Edwards. Hillary Clinton is the status quo candidate where as Edwards and Barrack Obama stand for change. Voters desiring change are forced to choose between Edwards and Obama. Edwards is clearly running the third spot in the race. He also has very little money backing further reducing his chances at winning. And we know how Clinton has been smearing Obama’s image through chain emails claiming he is a muslim set to destroy the United States.
