This Bloomberg News story says Jim Webb recently criticized Hillary Clinton’s performance as Secretary of State. The story then talks about the possibility of Webb declaring as an independent presidential candidate.

It is not clear why the story talks about Ralph Nader’s 2000 run as involving “fractions of a percent.” Nader received more than 1% of the vote in every state in which he was on the ballot, in 2000, except Mississippi (.83%) and Tennessee (.95%). His best percentage was in Alaska, where he got 10.10%. Also the story says South Dakota has the earliest independent presidential deadline, and quotes me for saying that. I am quoted correctly but I was mistaken; the South Dakota independent presidential deadline is in August. UPDATE: the story has been corrected.
