Opting for Nader shows hope

Tim Layton (Readers' Forum, April 16) can't directly attack the anti-Cheney protest at BYU, so he attacks Ralph Nader, a man who has been famous for almost 50 years.

Nader will never be our vice president, but he was changing the world without scandal when Dick Cheney was busy changing his draft status. If listening to Ralph Nader demonstrates naivete, then it also shows the attitude that new graduates should have. Their modest protest won't change anything, but they, and we, should feel better that it happened at all.
