Ralph Nader (Part 1)

[Jarreason]

It trips me out how old ralph is

[OfficialRips420]

democrats and the green party are the ruin of this country. When are people who do more then bird watch while wearing mandels going to stand up and kick the shit out of these maggots. This is the asshole that killed the big block corvette.. rot in hell asshole.

[laudrup90]

@OfficialRips420 .wtf?are you high or somethiing?democrats=republica­ns single party with no regard of the american citizen.hell doesnt exsit you moron and why would you kick the shit out of one of the few noble politicans in this fucking country.just because you dont agree with him doesnt mean you can slander him in whatever way.ron paul,denns kucinich,raph nader,etc,etc are the real politicans represnting americans albeit with complete different stances.th rest are just shills.

[HarveyRex23]

Nader is a guy who stands up to the tyranny of the private sector and Corporate America.

[billygowhoop]

Ralph Nader = Bad Ass

[Lingerfoot]

Ralph Nader - 2012!

[Sorcoral]

oh my god its nadar...never acually heard this man talk

im glad its going to be on the hour

[SAFETYHOOD]

What has happened to Freedom of Speech - Freedom of Choice? It seems that Money - Special Interest still rules in the USA - Not true Freedom. We are told what to feel, what to believe, just like sheep being led to the slaughter. My father fought in WWII for Freedom from Tyranny and yet The Tyranny is now coming from within our own country. Who will stop it? It isn't OBAMA or McCain - It must be We the People who must take our FREEDOM Back. We have the right under the Constitution of this country

[myxomata]

Nader is the only candidate looking out for the interests of regular people.

The Democrats and Republicans have consistently shown their allegiance to corporate special interests, not the people. And yes this includes Obama.

VOTE NADER!

[travelfar22]

Ralph Nader has been an advocate for your average citizen

for many years. Everyone should bypass the corporate controlled

media and get on youtube and democracynow[dot]org.

Apathy is sinking the ship and, Europe cannot believe how

citizens of the U.S. blindly follow the duopoly!

"If you don't turn on politics, politics is going to continue to turn on you."

- Ralph Nader

NADER/Gonzalez = WE the PEOPLE

Democrat/Republican parties = THEY the CORPORATION$

Views: 5,706---did it go up?

[chatelet55]

General Motors offered an apology to Ralph Nader! He single-handedly brought a greedy multinational to its knees. Imagine what he could do with the support of a few Americans.

[Lingerfoot]

Ralph Nader and Jesse Ventura - 2012!

[monsterfashion]

Now there is an American.

[civilright]

question his sexuality?? LOL jesus christ 50s white conservatives are from another fuckin planet.

[HappyHellion]

True that, things haven't changed too much since then. . .

[beyoutofull1]

how about nader, paul,kucinich,and gravel all run on the same ticket, that might change some shit, unfortunatly that's just a dream!

[wtfoof]

Listen, I'm probably "greener" (environmental motivated then even Raph but he will never get elected. If he takes votes away from democrats none of his ideas and policies will every be implimented. He needs to put his ego in check and put pressure on the democratic candidates. Nader is a great American but not presidential material.

[LittleRedMenace]

What better way to put pressure on the Democrats than to run and make people listen? If he's "taking away" votes, then it's up to the Democrats to address why that is rather than scapegoat him, yet again. (yawn)

Why does this even have to be said? Do we no longer live in a democracy?

[kalvinphil]

They always say he takes democrats votes away. Thats a cop-out. He gaines his own supporters who obviously dont care for rep. or dem. candidates...and quite frankly. I dont blame them.

[StellarMortem]

I was planning on voting for Obama in November but if Nadar runs I'm going Green!

[wtfoof]

Then say hello to McInsane and at least four more years of Bush's policies

[LittleRedMenace]

Way to be an American.

[Zeddtar]

Mccain

[henpage]

no, he's what obama should be.

[Shamborn]

it's great to see an American we can be proud of.

[NinaFromCanada]

Ralph, as usual great. he is the best.

I am a little disappointed on george and his interview skills after watching this interview.

[octoberapple]

it's a really good book. i peeked (at length) in the book store. :)

[Denisehealthnut]

I love Ralph Nader, I'm going to get his book!

[thewomandirector]

Great talk. My forthcoming book, "What Was Ralph Nader Thinking?" tells the full story of Nader's ballot access battles in 2004.

[Martin140189]

Gooo the republicans!! Kill people and take there money!!! Greens and democrats suck!! Being good people is for loser!!

[RonPaulRalphNader08]

How about this idea:

Why not take the BEST ideas from classic liberalism with Ralph Nader, and combine them with the BEST ideas from classic conservatism with Ron Paul, and merge them together into ONE new platform that serves the common man and small family busineses OVER big corporations, special interest groups, and the super wealthy.

Both men are honest patriots who speak the truth.

Both will END the war.

Ron Paul and Ralph Nader '08

[kalvinphil]

You are right on !!!! I would even take Gravel.

Ron Paul would be our best bet as Americans

[viper002060]

nah, nader and gravel are way better

[Bigturns33]

I agree I love Paul. I like Gravel and Nadar also. Anything is better than the establishment. Thats clear.

[julstav13]

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!

[gillies24]

actually it was the voting "machines" that put bush in office...twice!! Sweet post.

stop the NAU!!!

[puppydogbreath]

Gravel/Nader in 2008 :D

[yo9sling]

nader

[f1br30p7ix]

My wish list of interviews on the hour:

Micheal Moore

More to come...

[nefa2ious]

i love the set ups!

[aroundthepad]

"Fighting for democracy". The facade that put Dubya in power? Wow. What a gem of a system. Fighting for democracy. There's one slogan that will never recover. Good consumer advocate, but really needs to stop splitting the vote. Stay out of what he knows he will not win until it looks like it could be a genuine possibility.

[shahryarrakeen]

What are you talking about? Gore won the popular vote. Stop blaming Nader.

[JustJoelyouassclown]

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.

[Xenu]

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.

[homeborn]

Gore lost cos he didnt want clintons help

its his own silly fault

[thewomandirector]

O Canada! A Ralph-friendly country (most are - in a 2004 worldwide poll, Ralph won the election!)

[viniciusb]

Wow! That shows how the world is much more in tune with America than Americans.
