Nader Authorizes 2004 Exploratory Committee
How will this affect the democratic nominee in 04? Im not sure how much influence the Green party will have in getting votes

WASHINGTON — Ralph Nader has not yet decided whether to make another run for the White House, but he's authorized a new exploratory committee to raise money for a potential bid.

The Nader 2004 Presidential Exploratory Committee was formed in late October as part of the consumer activist's effort to gauge support for a run, said Theresa Amato, a committee director.
