Description: Ralph Nader is an American activist, consumer advocate, and political critic. He stood up against the big American car companies, criticized U.S foreign policy, and fought for human rights and democracy. The Atlantic Monthly listed him as one of the 100 most influential Americans. "He made the cars we drive safer; thirty years later, he made George W. Bush the president." Now, he's got a new book out. It's called, 'The Seventeen Traditions,' in which Nader describes the life lessons from his childhood.

Xenu ::: Favorites I think there's a study that came out that proves that Gore could not have won (which he did) 2000 without Nader. Gore was trailing Bush significantly in the polls before Nader ran and forced Gore to take a more populist stand (at least publically). I wish Nader had taken more votes from Gore, that way the Democrats would have been taught a lesson about being cowards. Gotta love how they've backed Bush's crimes all the way. 07-09-13 14:06:22 __________________________________________________
julstav13 ::: Favorites When people don't vote what they ought to and the political cast of characters is against good government...Nader's persistence is to reclaim politics' one purpose...not greed and power to rule, but to produce the best democratic leaders...ballot power is for top leadership...money as the frontrunner intro for Obama and Hillary according to U.S. media,is not the view shown in the Canadian interview...Nader looks great here! Vote to Reclaim our government from the corrupt! 07-08-23 15:47:54 __________________________________________________
JustJoelyouassclown ::: Favorites Any number of factors put W in power. The majority of Americans who DIDN'T vote. A # of parties got enough votes to sway FL. If Gore won his home state he would have not needed FL. Kathleen Harris? You are essentially subverting Democracy bc you accept the two party system as inevitable and omnipresent, and criticizing those who don't. Would you have said the same for Lincoln? Or any other 3rd party candidate? Either everyone splits votes, or no one is entitled votes and they must EARN them. 07-08-13 15:33:09 __________________________________________________
