Harvard's Class Day speakers have included the likes of Mother Teresa, Walter Cronkite, Hank Aaron, Ralph Nader and Conan O'Brien. Last week the satirical British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen, better known as the faux hip-hop journalist ALI G, joined the distinguished ranks. Wearing a skullcap, matching track suit emblazoned "Professor of Erbology" and chains, Ali G addressed "da most cleverest of students in America" and their parents with a homily that, in his inimitably maladroit manner, touched on everything from sex, drugs and pornography to famous Harvard grads like "Lyndon Baines Johnson, or, as he is known...

Though Nader has promised to leave the race if it looks like he might swing it for Bush (and polling data indicates that he very well might), his mere entry into the campaign threatens to split the liberal vote. If he really wants to form a united front against the president, Nader should rally behind the one man who has a chance at beating Bush—John Kerry...
