[candidate-development] Nader and McKinney!

[Mike Heichman]

Hi John,

Nice job.

I will forward this information to the CDLC and Statecom-discuss list.

I am in agreement with Mr. Nader. I wish him well in his campaign and 
hope that his candidacy and our party can work cooperatively in the 
coming months.

Mike Heichman
