Ralph Nader
 

I used to think the man was partially insane, and hey maybe he is. But I went to see his documentry the other day called "an unreasonable man" and I've never been more inspired by a man in my life. They documented his fights in the 60's with the Big 3 (not me exactly but the auto industry my name is pointed at) all the way up through to the 2004 election.

I can honestly say that watching this I've never been more touched by a human being, or felt more sick to be living in America today. It inspired my thesis work, and it made me sick of everything I held dear. I've always wanted to change politics, heres a man who'd done it for years and is now finding that the system sold out to corporations years ago.

The film also did a couple other things that are worth note:

1. Made Pat Buchanen seem like the most likeable guy ever. Very honest and logical

2. Skewered the **** out of Micheal Moore who amkes great documentries but is such a d-bag asshole.

Also, I thought the title was a slag against him but the film starts with this quote:

"A reasonable man adapts himself to his environment. An unreasonable man persists in attempting to adapt his environment to suit himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man." - George Bernard Shaw

I had his baby.



It was made out of tofu.

/sigh

This is what I get for trying to have intellectual discussion.

My point: Please go see the god damn film.

You said you'd had sex with a woman...

I'm fairly certain I hope you die in a fire.

I'm sure the odds are decent.

Not as good as the odds of Ralph Nader becoming president though right? Right?......

Since this has become our chat line, Do you have an opinion on him?

I don't mind leftist politics...but I'm bugged by the way he's split the liberal vote when he's run for president. It was an exercise in futility, and campaigning costs a lot of money that could have been put toward other goals.

I saw it tonight - I thought it was GREAT. I'll be picking up his book. asap

Hahahah, you owe me a new laptop *******, I spit soda all over my screen.
