Ralph Nader Analogy

Homer: You know, when I was a boy, I really wanted a catcher's mitt, but my dad wouldn't get it for me. So I held my breath until I passed out and banged my head on the coffee table. [cheerily] The doctor thought I might have brain damage.

Bart: Dad, what's the point of this story?

Homer: I like stories.

Just substitute Ralph Nader for Homer and the American people for Bart. Then pretend Nader was just asked the question of why he wants to be President.
