911 FROM AN UNDISCLOSED LOCATION February 23, 2004 Ralph Nader Requests Secret Service Protection Washington, DC  |  The two leading Democratic presidential hopefuls will soon have something else in common with Ralph Nader. Immediately after announcing his intention to run for President as an Independent candidate, Nader put in a formal request for the same Secret Service protection that John Kerry and John Edwards receive. By law, a candidate is eligible for Federal protection if a series of standards are met, including public prominence as measured by polls and fund raising. Or, as in Nader's case, if 63 million registered Democrats want to kill him.
