Ralph Nader . . .


"Ever since Ralph Nader announced his independent candidacy for president last month, both friends and critics have wondered why he is running -- and where the great gadfly will obtain the enormous resources needed for a national campaign," writes Joe Conason in his March 15, 2004, Salon article "Office Space. Ralph Nader's got some explaining to do. Why is his campaign headquarters housed in his nonprofit's tax-exempt offices?"

Nader's campaign for U.S. presidential election, 2004 is "presently headquartered at 1400 16th Street in Washington [which is] a modern, downtown office building where it shares a suite with an outfit called Citizen Works," a group that describes "itself as 'a nonprofit, nonpartisan, 501(c)3 tax-exempt organization founded by Ralph Nader in April 2001 to advance justice by strengthening citizen participation in power."

Conason cites this as evidence that Nader's "organization may be cutting financial corners and skirting the dubious edge of federal election and tax laws."
