Ralph Nader speaks to Max Blumenthal

[rachelgolem]

Jews have secret meetings where we laugh when Iraqis kill each other.

[KripkeSaul]

@rachelgolem haha, never was a secret.. :)

[rachelgolem]

@KripkeSaul

Shhhhh, please don't tell anyone. We don't want them to stop!!!!

And now we do it for the Egyptians too.

[jsmith224455]

I don't like his comment about Mexicans having "infectious diseases", but Nader is obviously a genius. Even at his most offensive, he's still not spewing ill formed hatred. He intelligently ponders. He is exactly what America needs more of. More intelligent thinkers.

[mightisright]

@jsmith224455

Do you think everyone on earth is equally healthy?

[jsmith224455]

@mightisright No.

[halflifeproductionz]

thats the fucking problem, these democrat dickheads didn't stop bush. the blame is on them, fuck the republican cancers, its these stupid democrats that didn't push against the authorization to get into iraq.

[izaccy]

@halflifeproductionz Cuz these democrats

are weak pathetic useless people, they do not fight for what their constitutens believe in. you see republicans, storm out and hitting their targets,

but when democrats are in office, nothing can get passed.

[halflifeproductionz]

@izaccy democrats can't even repeal don't ask don't tell!

[rachelgolem]

There is no G-d but Marx and Chomsky is his messenger.

[gggreggg]

ralph nader did great service to america, but he has become irrelevant.

because of nader's ego, g w bush became president.

[Krumpenstein]

@gggreggg I love the narrative democrat bigots have created around the 2000 election. The idea that Nader is driven by ego, and that he single-handedly gave Bush the keys to the White House is absurd.

[violin3333]

max's aproach to interviewing is to catagoricaly try to put down and disrespect every one he interviews in a effort to make him self look "cute", metaphorically speaking, I apreceate his effort to mine the truth in the world, but RSnelli's comment strikes true, Max looks preatty dum-founded trying to "dis" on Ralph Nader, but throughly

[DaHonestAbe]

I like Blumenthal alot. But when I watched closely, I think I saw Nader literally hand Max his ass. Love ya Max, but you ought to know better.

[deliciousmorton]

Nader 2008!

[sssssjjjj1]

When it comes to American policies, any category, Nader is the master of every situation. Why vote for an honest genius. We have to vote for a spineless puppet. We get the choice of 2 puppets every year. The mainstream medias job is to make it 50 50 support so no matter who they want they can elect and if it was stolen no one will argue because after all, the polls said 51 49, +/- 4 % points.

[tertommy]

Max Blumenthal ??

Stuttering Kike. Ralph should have closelined this weenie.

[lakerfan198126]

stupid hebe thought he could play 'gotcha' with Ralph Nader ... how does your ass taste Jewmenthal?

[MusicIzMySavior]

@lakerfan198126 he is a jew but doesnt support israel or zionism

[Santarchy]

I generally like Blumenthal but he failed miserably on this one. He clearly had misconceived perceptions about Nader's positions.

[bush1tman]

I like how Ralph corrects the errors in the questions Blumenthal asks. "Do you still see no difference between Republicans and Democrats after 7 yrs of GWB?" "Was teaming up with the Christian Right in Florida to save Terri Schaivo, was that returning power to the people in your opinion?" Ha ha ha.

[NPhelge]

max blumenthal got his ass handed to him by nader.

[poop121]

@NPhelge

agreed

[deliciousmorton]

@NPhelge was this video a debate?

[TheShannon76]

Max Blumenthal is the way he is because of what his dad to his mother.

[bush1tman]

Which was what?

[santi781]

u never can allow a guardian to have a conflict of interest 5:10

[elgaed69]

'Coward' describes you well, petty and lowly thing.

[Adeebster]

max get a press pass to speak to obama and question him of his policies

i want to see that uncle tom stutter and wound up chasing you out of the complex

[TageSavage]

I like Blumenthal's muckraking, but Nader's too principled.

[Entaruadunexecutor]

Ralph Nader is dead on.

[KartChampion]

Max looks brain dead in this video.

Funny how Max is ok with the wars in the Middle East now that the dems are increasing the funding. what a hypocrite

I also don't think he realizes that he sounds just as racist and moronic as some of the ppl he rightly critizes.

[calamagrostis88]

Nader is one of the few people on the left who still understand like Cesar Chavez did that illegal immigrants are used by business to undermine the American worker. Many business owners hate

U.S. citizens because we question authority and we demand fair treatment and decent pay.

[oldjoe5]

Ralph had it right on the wars.

US, under Obama, now in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan

[elgaed69]

He's right. The fundamental problem with the USA is that it has allowed too much immigration by inferior individuals . Not racially inferior, but socially inferior, morally inferior, often genetically inferior humans who now constitute the majority in this country, and have the final say on things like the War in Iraq. Such outcastes should have been prevented from having children to begin with.

[elgaed69]

Anyone who thinks this sounds elitist or extremist should consider that the main supporters of massive immigration have always been large corporations and those who wish to have more 'cattle' for workers, the same people, such as the Rockefeller dynasty, who (see John Taylor Gatto) have also designed the educational system to make Americans dumber and more fit for menial labour.

[elgaed69]

It is not elitism or extremism, but simple, in fact old and well-known science. Overpopulation is the prime cause of humanity's problems, and secondarily and partly consequential of that are such problems as bad parenting/education/upbringing­, poor genetics, poor nutrition, weakened immune systems, etc.

[elgaed69]

Add to that the wars which have eliminated a large portion of the strong and intelligent genetic stock in this country. Think of the effects on the gene-pool of -most- of the healthy, intelligent males dying during the various large-scale wars this country has participated in over the past two centuries.

[ahabthewhaler]

intelligent people volunteering for illegal wars hey. interesting theory. i would have said less dumb ass hillbilly idiots easily swept up in false patriotic drivel.

[elgaed69]

If you think that most Americans who died during wars over the past two centuries VOLUNTEERED, you are mightily uninformed.

[ahabthewhaler]

no offense but i have been reading your comments and you seem a littler nutty. i think i will back away slowly avoiding eye contact

[elgaed69]

Your bad English alone already demonstrates that you are stupid and careless. The rest of it shows that you are a fool, too. Neither hemisphere of your brain is well-functioning. When a cullible animal balks from me, I feel more the lion of honour.

[ahabthewhaler]

wow. you sound so stupid. can i keep you as a pet

[elgaed69]

Usually the language-gifted human is the one keeping the animal, and not the snorting swine.

[RSnelli]

Max....don't mess with Nader the brightest mind in America. LOL

[trabohlm]

Nader is great. He is still out there working. Now he is pushing single payer health care instead of this bandaid thing being considered that rewards the health insurance companies that have helped to bring the health care mess about. Keep making the videos, Max. They are good.

[SomaliDuriyaad]

i love nader.

[akaMouse]

love max blumenthal,but he def got smacked down here by Nader. Literally. on every single question.

[jewpalegay]

ralph nader and ron paul should run together for vice president and president..Wont matter who is who..They would make a great freakin team

[tj2tone]

Wow, Ralph made great comments. Like the 'brain drain' issue.

[psbfan01]

Go Ralph! I voted for him last fall and after seeing this, am even more pleased with my decision. Obama will continue to disappoint, doing the bidding of his corporate masters and kowtowing to AIPAC.

[Waiting4Judgment]

LOL Max looks clueless.... hehehehehe duh duh duh...

[bigsid920]

Wow, Max had his ass handed to him:)

[Rasputin443556]

For the most part, though Ralph was talking out his ass on the Schaivo case, and some of his details on immigration. He's right that it's primarily a wage issue, but wrong that there is not a civil rights issue.

[maXXXXXpower]

hmm.. who'd want to include this boring interview to their favs. On the immigration, though, Nader is right on.

[enginedave]

blumenthal is sooo green behind the ears, oh my lord. has he even thought about these issues beyond the knee-jerk liberal resentment that he obviously has?

[cookimonstizzle]

please run...

[mcalien24]

no one can predict what would have happened if gore was pres. but naders critique of the 2 party system is right on.

[BooHooHooMan]

Hey Max, How often do you beat your wife? Really, you're in way over your head and coming off as a tool. Stick with the late breaking news (duh) that Fundies are whack jobs. And did you really ask: "Are Neocons going to be in the Defense Department?" LOL. You actually asked that, laddie?? Where have you been the last THIRTY? Playing with your Mr. Microphone???

[BooHooHooMan]

Why don't you just admit you're more at home with Hagee's Pro Zion imbeciles? Nice try with the "look over here" on Nader and Gore - two guys out of the race, and frankly no longer the issue.

[ThisCanadian]

don't bother pretending the two parties don't own your ass. learn to enjoy it. go back to sleeeeeep BooHooHooMan nothing you need to worry about or consider... its all 'out of your control' democracy.

[JohnBucketHoweVai]

Nader is a very subtle guy. Max Blumenthal is trying to trap him, doesn't fall for it.

[m0m2two]

ive never seen anyone trap nader or chomsky. real men.

[chuuzetsu]

I've seen Chomsky get trapped. Do a YouTube search for alex jones and chomsky. That prick Alex Jones waits till the end to trap Chomsky on the issues of isolationism and gun control. It was a pretty low blow on Alex's part. Chomsky didn't know what to think.

[simonesimone2]

go raaalph!!! 2008!

[sabonisrules]

Good interview!

[Xenu]

I dont agree with Nader on Gore and the war. Feb 12 2002 Gore gave a speech before the Council on Foreign Relations in which he states: And there is a clear case that one of these governments in particular represents a virulent threat in a class by itself: Iraq. As far as I am concerned, a final reckoning with that government should be on the table. To my way of thinking, the real question is not the principle of the thing, but of making sure that this time we will finish the matter on our terms

[Xenu]

Gore would have invaded Iraq, just attempted done it multi-laterally. And this Blumenthal person would probably just have cheerleaded the war. This idiot is a slavish spokesman for the pro-war Democratic Party.

[OneWorldOneLife]

Nader, Kucinich 2008! Spread peace and love! :-)!

[poop121]

i agree

[meantime08]

Look up the word "nadir" and think of Nader.

[nothingbutstars]

I didn't know Nader was pro republican with Terry Schiavo.

I didn't know he teamed up with Grover Norquist "on his terms".

Ralph had the rehearsed answers because he is a lawyer and

the format was controlled and agreed to before hand.

Grover Norquist? Terry Schiavo? If he were to fall into a

fugue of honesty (Jim Carey) it would be...YES, I DID IT! I slept with

the dogs of Norquist and the American Likudnics and thats why I woke

up with flees, corruption, incompetence, and George Bush.

[JustJoelyouassclown]

Hello? Most all politicians are lawyers. I love to see the contempt that comes seething out against someone who doesn't EXACTLY follow your Democratic Party lines. OMG?! Did Ralph work with someone in another party!? Remember who gave you NAFTA! The Democratic Party is a failure; we're still in Iraq, we still have the Patriot Act. "pro republican" try thinking outside The Party box.

[Omnis2]

Nader should be in the private sector. Look up Ron Paul.

[cleftronix]

Damn I didnt know he is against illegal Aliens. I have a new respect for this guy!

[levireavey]

Ralph shines again! Max those were some good questions to ask. And Ralph had all the right answers. Amazing!

[cutis1000]

Excellent comments by Ralph. The man is very intelligent. I met him and got the chance to ask him questions just like Max. He spent the time to answer my questions and I found him to be one of the most engaging public servants I've ever had the privilege of meeting.

[westphalianprinz]

I lost lots of respect for Nader after Terri Schiavo.

[area24isme]

Yes, consider if the democrats had not won in Nov.

No difference? Very little difference? HA!

What a deep pool of wisdom you all have. Go Ralph, u da man! Nader and Lieberman or is it Lieberman and Nader in 08. HA, what a thought!

[xjaskix]

why is Nader not the president of usa? the WHOLE WORLD would have massive respect for your country, and life on this planet would be sweet.

[stopexecutions]

Great interview Max. Ralph Nader is the man and indeed he knows his stuff! He is a great man and deserves to be heard.

[michaelav08]

Nader knows his stuff.

[wfarnaby]

Ralph is entirely correct in his analysis of the American Nazi Party and the Military-Industrial Lite Party.

[area24isme]

This should be titled Max Blumenthal speaks to...who?

And we can all see the direction of the questions and

the controlled format. Ralph, u da man, you pwned him,

awesome, I loves ya Ralph, u & da RNC Ralph. Deflection radar is up...take it or leave it.

[tigerbody69]

Nader for Prez!

(Since Harry Brown died ;(

[area24isme]

Nadar did not hold him back. Max's whole line of questions were designed to prove that Nader is working

for the Republicans. Grover Norquist? Terry Schievo?

"On my terms" MY ASS. They have something on him, IMO.

When supporters talk about the 2000 election thats

when the lawyer talk comes out to avoid embarrassment.

[tigerbody69]

Yes, we've heard that BS line before.

[area24isme]

Yes, everytime your hero speaks.

Joe, Ralph...the RNC's pockets run deep.

[tigerbody69]

That is - the BS that supporting one candidate means you really support the ReplubliCrats.

There is VVERY little diff between the 2 "Major Political Partys"

[area24isme]

Yes, consider if the democrats had not won in Nov.

No difference? Very little difference? HA!

What a deep pool of wisdom you have. Go Ralph, u da man! Nader and Lieberman or is it Lieberman and Nader in 08. HA, what a thought!

[minkyboodle78]

agreed I love Max but Nader owned him here, no doubt

[nothingbutstars]

It had to have been financial. The RNC owns Ralph

and I'll bet they had something on him to get him

to run. Grover Noquist? Terry Schiavo? Deflection

by Ralph but few honest answers. Thanks Max, I

didn't know how bloody low he had to go. What was

the quote from last week by a republican "we will beat you with obstruction and money". Yes, they have plenty of both but little else. Deflect,

lie is into war, break the law, treason...

little difference in parties? What a joke.

[JustJoelyouassclown]

Both parties are FULL of shit. What was the last major accomplishment by the Dems?

Funds given to candidates range from all over for all different reasons. NO political parties ask questions. This was a classic example of contemporary Dems holding in contempt people of their own ideology. Nobody cost anyone votes, they all have to EARN them.

[rosieisahippo]

Ralph is better than any Dem.Both parties are totally full of shit but the Dems are the biggest phonies in the entire game.Fuck 'em.

[dilbertgeg]

Look at Progressive Review Sam Smith story about Arkansas and Clinton. RM Sciafe and Jerry Falwell hijacked a protest launched by prog AK students, against Clinton-Bush crime syndicate.

Katrina Vanden Heuval -- i like what she says and what Max says -- she worked for the guys who hired Prescott Bush to finance Hitler, bcuz her dad was to CIA. Seriously.

[detoth67]

I generally like your videos, Max. But you tried to slam Nader and he held you back like a seasoned pro. He would have been great. But unfortunately, most Americans don't want to hear what he has to say.

[Articles1]

max im a big fan

your brilliant and funny, keep up the videos buddy

[Blahcetera]

Good grilling, Max.

In related Nader news, a tree fell in a forest*.

*forest located on a distant uninhabited planet orbiting a dying star.

Planet received funds from the Republican Party.

[todd6ishop]

All good questions to ask Nader.

[jthomp3120]

Max got pwned by the master

[alanshemper]

Nader is a cool guy.

[simonesimone2]

get back to your homework max
