"We've got enough of an arsenal to blow up the world 200 times and make the rubble bounce. Let's spend some of the money on our school's, communities, and universal healthcare."
Nader continued, imploring young voters to "stand tall to the injustice the way your forebears did."
He spent the most time attacking the belief that a vote for him is a vote for Bush.
At least one BU student was swayed.
"I think he brought up a lot of points that are often overlooked," said B.U. first-year Leslie Cook, who voted by absentee ballot. "I didn't vote for Nader, but I wish I had."
Corey Eastwood, the national student coordinator for the Green Party said he agreed with Nader.
