"Ralph Nader built a legislative record as a private citizen that would have been the envy of any modern president.""Imagine if you got in a car, and the airbag said "Ralph Nader" or if the seatbelt said 'Nader' or you looked at the air, and it's cleaner, and somewhere it said 'Nader on it.

RALPH NADER: Too early to say. I think we need more voices and choices. I think the speech by former Senator Mike Gravel indicates there’s going to be a wider debate in the primaries of the Democratic Party, along with Congressman Dennis Kucinich. There are lots of people in this country urging Bill Moyers to run in the Democratic primary. He would certainly give it more depth. And I hope more independent candidates and third-party candidates run. We’ve got to break this two-party elected dictatorship that’s being measured by how much money it raises.
