Presidential candidate Ralph Nader paid a visit to Syracuse on Friday. Nader was in town campaigning with Howie Hawkins, the Green Party candidate for the 25th district congressional seat. Nader spoke about the electoral college, calling it an unfair system. He says the central issue of this campaign is the corporate domination of people's lives.

Nader wants to take the country in a new direction by supporting a living wage, reducing waste of taxpayer money, ending the war in Iraq and cracking down on corporate abuse. And in order to do that, he says "We have to break up the two party duopoly. They haven't delivered for the American people anywhere what the multi-party systems have in Europe."

Nader is on the ballot in 45 states this year.
