Al Gore meets Ralph Nader

[odietarceo]

I saw Ralph in Baltimore a few weeks ago promoting his new book, and he mentioned this encounter (this exact one, i don't know). He told Al something like "you've been liberated!, how does it feel to be liberated?"

Haha, Gore didn't seem happy to see him.

I encourage everyone to see Nader's new documentary, "An Unreasonable Man"

[typevx]

yea can somebody tell me what they said??

[viniciusb]

Ralph said: "How does it feel to be liberated?"

Thanks for posting this! It validates in a way Al's environmental efforts.

I am surprised they let Ralph in this time..

All Gore had to do was run with Nader's 2000 platform and he blows Bush off the map since the public opinion polls show they agree with Nader on almost everything.

But no, he fucks up and runs with much of the Bush agenda. They had so many similarities in policies, which the public doesn't follow tending to focus more on personality, that you sometimes couldn't tell them apart---as Gore pointed out in one of the debates.

Oh man. This video says so much by showing so little.

hmmm... not much to go on here. I hope Ralph at least paid for the book he got signed.

If only Clinton had been there, there would have been half a brain between them.

Wow, never thought that would happen.

"I'm not supposed to say anything, just sign books," he announced when he started. But when he got to number 214 in the line, he noticed the lanky figure and stood up. "Nice to see you! How you doing? . . . I'm really so grateful to you for coming by."

After more pleasantries, Gore scribbled a line in the book: "For my friend, Ralph Nader. With respect, Al Gore."

[persiancowboy]

What did Ralph nader say? I can't understand anything!

[ronnykmarshall]

Al should have knocked him on his ass.
