Ralph Nader apaaks to a Sunday eudrsnce 10 the Spacial Events Canter on current events and tns democratic campaign.

RRNORLL POST News reporter

As part of an invite by the Campus Greens, inde- pendent presidential candidate Ralph Nader spoke in BSU's Special Events Center on Sunday, Aug. 8. Nader spoke about current issues such as the war in Iraq, the U.S. polltical system, corporate crime and health care in the United States. "The Iraq quagmire was started by two chicken- hawks, George Bush and Dick Cheney, based on de- ceptions, fabrications, and lies," Nader said. Nader said his ticket is the only one that offers a set date and complete withdrawal of U.S. forces in Iraq. "We invaded Iraq for one word-oil." Nader said the majority of American citizens now think the Iraq war was a mistake. He also said the war alienates the Islamic world and endangers America's security. Nader continued by attacking the political sys- tem, saying the two-party system is rigged and is infiltrated with corporate interests. "Bush is nothing more than a giant corporation disguised as a human being," stated Nader, claim- Kustra campaigns for the future ing the Bush Administration's ties to corporations leaves them with no allegiance to the U.S. Nader's campaign has run into obstacles trying sess the financial needs of BSU for Idaho's institutions of public high- BY GREGORY RUTTY lar program at EKU, and thinks it to get on November's ballot.

Art in the Park to raise funds for B.A.M.

MICHRELR G. HEALlH ... Culture Writer

The Boise Art Museum (BAM) is present- ing the 50'h Annual Art in the Park celebra- tion this Friday through Sunday, Sept. 10-12, in . The First Art in the Park took place in 1954 when local artists show- cased their artwork on a clothesline strung from the Boise Art Museum (then called Boise Gallery of Art) to a tree in Julia Davis Park. Today, over 265artists and 35 food vendors come together to create the largest single fundraiser for BAM.Although admission is free, there are a few incentives for making a purchase. 20 per- cent of the proceeds from art and food sales that BAM receives are used to bring outstanding vi- sual arts, educational programs, and activities for children to the Boise community throughout the year. Also, remember to enter your receipts for a chance to win the raffle for roundtrip tick- ets from Southwest Air~ines and Bogus Basin passes. Need more BAM after exploring the creative
