Ralph Nader deserves a medal of honor; he's single-handedly done more for the American public than almost any public servant or politician in the last 100 years. He's a true humanitarian and hero. I still cannot get over his loss in the presidential election. If only...
He lost because you don't build a campaign for the top down. The office of the presidency is not an entry-level job and is the endgame of party wins through the states and country races. Like Bernie, he failed 9th grade civics. Politics is a team effort and both never understood that. The didn't have legislative allies who would write their agendas into law. The presidency is not a monarchy and the power actually rests with the legislature. If he or Bernie wanted to ACTUALLY win, they would have been members of a larger party to garner legislative power and momentum before running for the top office.
@@lohphat WRONG. Politics is about using manipulation, lies, and crime. Biden literally is a certified liar and has been doing it for decades. He's president because he's a criminal and the establishment is criminal. Chances are you are a criminal because no one can be that dumb.

Yes, he may have been a great President. But think of how the United States and the world would be different if Nader had not run for President in 2000. He was the single reason that Al Gore lost to George Bush. Nader split the Democratic vote enough to cost Gore the win. Just think of how things would be different had Bush lost...Maybe no 9/11, no Iraq war and its consequences, no Afghanistan war, possibly no Tea Party, Bush's selections on the Supreme Court, Bush did not push to renew the assault weapons ban when it expired in September 2004, and the collapse of the US economy in 2008! Of course, there could have been different negative results had Gore been elected, but we know what happened as a result of Bush winning.
@jcorb Since Gore lost by 5 Electoral College "votes," he would have won the election, had he won either his former partner, Clinton's, home state of Arkansas (6 votes) or his OWN HOME STATE of Tennessee (11 votes), notwithstanding anything that happened, in Florida. He lost both those states, including the State where his father had served, in the House, and then three times (18) years in the U.S. Senate, and he, himself, had served for a total of 16 years, all from Tennessee. And those homeboys didn't vote for him in 2000. And we got Bush.
@@hotconcrete Actually, Ralph Nader isn't responsible for George W. Bush, and thus, isn't responsible for Albert Gore losing in 2000. Your favorite Albert Gore has only himself to blame for losing in 2000 because he was an mediocre at best candidate. Dude couldn't even win his homestate of TN. And Gore also had prior knowledge of 9/11 but did nothing, and Gore later went on to support the war too. Ralph had every right to seek the presidency, btw. What you are doing is Scapegoating as well as Gaslighting. Even your favorite Albert Gore agrees that Ralph Nader is innocent of any wrong doing! Shows what an out of touch neoliberal centrist you are.
It's really good that the speaker who introduced Nader summed up what Nader has done. It goes back to the 1960s and a lot of people don't know about it.
How many Lawyers have stood up for the masses since 2015, it's now 2022's end. Make 2023 Count for Humanity. Make the lives and efforts of these great men count, before their gone. They deserve heaven for their honesty and truthfulness.
They know they'll be serving the causes he's dedicated his life to oppose. They'll smother their conscience soon enough and be good and loyal ABA members( and comfortably well off with luck!)

Plus, your favorite Albert Gore picked Joseph Lieberman, a right wing moral crusader basically catfishing as a leftist, as his running mate.

Lawyers fighting for justice ...? Where´s the money in that ? Lawyers feed off the difficulties of others ---- They are only needed where justice is uncertain. Real exponents of the law, like Mr Nader, may be just small flies buzzing around the great destructive beast, but they have, at least, retained their integrity.
Law and justice are at best distant cousins. Law is the rule of the stronger. The dictate of the power elite. Unless you’re already wealthy, you can hardly afford to dedicate your life to fighting for justice. It’s not impossible but it’s very difficult.
@countcourtmail.... what I MOST like about Citizen Nader is that he asks us to DISPLACE mindless behaviors.... in favor of MINDFULL engagement of the Democratic Process AND.... Civic Responsibillity....
You don't get apples from a lemon tree. Ever law school graduates students who become loyal members of the American Bar Association. It and its state franchises are the defacto(we citizens are the rightful and sole owners) possessors of the courts and operate them to their profit at our most grievous loss. Perhaps it's best not to offer full argument here but to. pose a single question: If any of it is due process why is it ever necessary to falsify transcripts in felony court cases?
@@dennishickey7194 that’s such a good point. Our governance, our justice system, our commerce, ALL have been captured by a Legal elite who have purposely made every aspect of our society inaccessible to the common man, who cannot afford their services.

@@isidoreaerys8745 We have legislative bodies overwhelming populated by lawyers not a cross section of Americas representing our diversity. A hammer treats everything not a hammer as a nail. A businessman tends to see government as a business and applies its principles to government if elected. A teacher, farmer,or housewife in like manner brings their perspective to bear.Even the few elected to represent us instead often defer to lawyer colleagues as the attorneys"know the law". Lawyers make law and insist they alone can interpret it in courts where they're the defacto owners.We are told ignorance of the law is no excuse but even when the statute is plainly written and our understanding sound we are told we're mistaken. We have no recognized rights,none. The only persons with rights granted by the U.S. Supreme Court (who awarded them status as people) are corporations! We the people have a set of privileges that may be granted in full, in part or not at all. Inalienable rights by the leave of others are odd ones. As President, Bill Clinton invoked attorney privilege to use their private dictionary. It was no perjury under oath or contempt of Congress to swear, "I did not have sex with that woman".or "It depends on what your definition of 'is' is." I guess sex can only be sexual congress when before Congress. Perhaps they'll jump in to bring the matter to a satisfying climax. To end on a more troubling note: If the process they serve us in court is our due why do they ever need to change felony transcripts?
Wow! I'm pretty radical and have studied and worked for the evolution of jurisprudence as history, tradition and philosophical logic, most of my life... And this just iced the cake of great philosophies as per the Dharma§āstra, and finally, in the West - Habermas ! Just wow! MIT has Chomsky, I didn't know Harvard has Nader. He just single handedly made your reputation worth something for me, maybe even putting Harvard Law within the philosophical march of jurisprudence... Maybe?

"What good is an education? The boisterous guessers are still in charge - the haters of information. And the guessers are almost all highly educated people. Think of that.

I am a lawyer by the definition given here, despite having just a B.S. in mathematics from an unaccredited college. I have found the field of law almost entirely void of the "lawyer" Ralph speaks of. Specifically, for example, how many lawyers are really "mindful of deficiencies of justice"? Where have our lawyers been for the past two centuries defending the original 13th amendment against the illegal "honour" of "limited liability" which is the criminal cornerstone of the corporate state? I guess the question of whether "limited liability" is an "honour" under the original, censored thirteenth amendment is the biggest taboo for Harvard educated corporate lawyers. Please prove me wrong.

Ralph Nader cannot be Tempted. Like the Devil trying to tempt Jesus. Jump. You’re the Son of God. Jesus was NO FOOL. You can’t Con the Son of God. I said it again
it's a simple concept basic logic if life is not free why the hell would death be any cheaper it's not. So the question one may wonder is the spiritual cost to one's own soul and spirit for having lived and died to the lowest standards of quality for so many years now global pollution has diminished the quality of life to the point where today's people are living, dying and yielding the worst spiritual kickback that has ever been manifested since the beginning of life only getting worse. The polar opposite extreme to that is today's people should be living and dying to the highest standards of quality which would make each and every moment physically, mentally, financially and spiritually beneficial. S.R.F.
What the scholars don't face is that every democracy has succumbed to corruption. The numbers of patriots who have tried to defend its institutions have never been large. Less often have they been in the institutions themselves. Not only has it been unprofitable to be such a defender, but it has been exceedingly dangerous. In my view, democracy cannot survive in polities that allow great differences in personal wealth to develop or to exist within them. Democracy and capitalim are incompatible. The latter promotes the development and existence of large differences in personal income and property. Scholars such as Nader and Fein are, I believe, unwilling to accept this incompatibilty. To do so would make political democracy unattractive. Most people, I believe, are unwilling to accept a limitation on their fortunes as the cost of curbing corruption of democratic government. They would include Nader and Fein, my guess, because they do not deal with this reality. They, instead, try to pursuade us that if only citizens organized themselves and made their political leaders into guardians of probity and responsible government, corruption could be minimized even averted. The problem is who will watchdog the watchdogs? Impossible! The only way democracy can exist is to have not only liberty and fraternity but the perpetually missing economic equality, the anitithesis of capitalism. The government must have the authority to seize personal wealth for the purpose of redistribution when it exceeds the mean value beyond a clearly defined amount. No person may have the wealth to buy another.
Mr Nader: Not just the Ivy League law schools or others; the schools of journalism also are to blame for the demise of our highly flawed, quondam democracy - if we ever had one - and the descent into militarism and imperialism. The production of jounalistic liars has been phenomenal. The best, most trustworthy reporters and journalists are not generally from the "best" schools of journalism. Has Fred Friendly's Columbia School of Law produced any? I don't believe that honest journalists and reporters come from such celebrated loci: journalists and authors such as Matt Taibbi, Max Blumenthal, Aaron Mate, Ben Norton.
and of course general public Dont have access to how the works in the use their own people citizens snakes , private party being that they have their own rights cant be questioned or give out anything and who funds the privacy of those school what are they keeping private , the fact only Rich people have access to the law or Harvard school concerns me , what kind of party would sponsor schools like this I don't know how or when there was a bill , law or legislative act passed that their own people own citizens have to pay for law school to know the law, humans right, a birth right. , why not (US government) fund public law school for the general public HOW IT SHOULD BE.
Ah, yes....the best and the brightest. I've abhorred that expression since the architects of the Project of a New American Century were appointed to posts in Bush 43's administration and exercised their influence on it and the people.
Ralph Nader is a bureaucrat. The NHTSA is a part of the independent agencies in DC that have practically zero oversight until it's practically too late for any accountability to be enforced. Anthony Fauci showed how vulnerable we are to such bureaucracy.
I hope the united states governement apologizes to you. You were backstabbed by people who should have been embracing you. so stupid to put money over the good nature of proper brain circuitry.
Well was listening while falling asleep and could have bet I was listening to a Jew talking about social engineering a new society instead it's an Antiochian Greek Orthodox Christian, Ralph Nadar preaching how everybody needs to combine into 'one massive blob' to save the world? No? I'm wrong? He is talking about a 'fantasy' future, whereby there will be all these new technologies, endless job opportunities, endless supply of jobs, etc.sounds like a pep talk from the 50's? This talk from what I see was put on 7 years ago and I am probably only one who is analyzing this presentation differently, everybody who commented made him seem like a god? The world has come around the corner since he made this talk but he should have seen most of what is environmentally happening today. If I were a young person I'd swear he's telling me there's no problem to go out and multiply, add to 8 billion, make it 10 billion, plenty of resources, who needs habitat for animals when we (humans) need it? Screw acidic oceans, total nonsense, melting ice - that's what ice does is melt, who cares? Ralph is caught up in this economy of never ending growth and it is precisely that mental attitude that drives it forward everyday of the year; it's wrong, dangerous, insane.

it's a simple concept basic logic if life is not free why the hell would death be any cheaper it's not. So the question one may wonder is the spiritual cost to one's own soul and spirit for having lived and died to the lowest standards of quality for so many years now global pollution has diminished the quality of life to the point where today's people are living, dying and yielding the worst spiritual kickback that has ever been manifested since the beginning of life only getting worse. The polar opposite extreme to that is today's people should be living and dying to the highest standards of quality which would make each and every moment physically, mentally, financially and spiritually beneficial.

What the scholars don't face is that every democracy has succumbed to corruption. The numbers of patriots who have tried to defend its institutions have never been large. Less often have they been in the institutions themselves. Not only has it been unprofitable to be such a defender, but it has been exceedingly dangerous. In my view, democracy cannot survive in polities that allow great differences in personal wealth to develop or to exist within them. Democracy and capitalim are incompatible. The latter promotes the development and existence of large differences in personal income and property. Scholars such as Nader and Fein are, I believe, unwilling to accept this incompatibilty. To do so would make political democracy unattractive. Most people, I believe, are unwilling to accept a limitation on their fortunes as the cost of curbing corruption of democratic government. They would include Nader and Fein, my guess, because they do not deal with this reality. They, instead, try to pursuade us that if only citizens organized themselves and made their political leaders into guardians of probity and responsible government, corruption could be minimized even averted. The problem is who will watchdog the watchdogs? Impossible! The only way democracy can exist is to have not only liberty and fraternity but the perpetually missing economic equality, the anitithesis of capitalism. The government must have the authority to seize personal wealth for the purpose of redistribution when it exceeds the mean value beyond a clearly defined amount. No person may have the wealth to buy another.
Mr Nader: Not just the Ivy League law schools or others; the schools of journalism also are to blame for the demise of our highly flawed, quondam democracy - if we ever had one - and the descent into militarism and imperialism. The production of jounalistic liars has been phenomenal. The best, most trustworthy reporters and journalists are not generally from the "best" schools of journalism. Has Fred Friendly's Columbia School of Law produced any? I don't believe that honest journalists and reporters come from such celebrated loci: journalists and authors such as Matt Taibbi, Max Blumenthal, Aaron Mate, Ben Norton.

Now I know why he couldn’t be president ever.
and of course general
public Dont have access to how the works in the use their own people citizens
snakes ,
private party being that they have their own rights cant be questioned or give out anything and who funds the privacy of those school what are they keeping private , the fact only Rich people have access to the law or Harvard school concerns me , what kind of party would sponsor schools like this
I don't know how or when there was a bill , law or legislative act passed that their own people own citizens have to pay for law school to know the law, humans right, a birth right. , why not (US government) fund public law school for the general public HOW IT SHOULD BE.
My If I could trace the problems of the United States back to one thing, it would certainly be Harvard Law school
They need to discuss how MK Ultra is targeting Jews.
Commendable but there is no way for you to change the system from the inside, you will get owned.

Ah, yes....the best and the brightest. I've abhorred that expression since the architects of the Project of a New American Century were appointed to posts in Bush 43's administration and exercised their influence on it and the people.
He’s asking the lawyers to catalyze a religious conversion. This is the reason for his failure.
Ralph Nader is a bureaucrat. The NHTSA is a part of the independent agencies in DC that have practically zero oversight until it's practically too late for any accountability to be enforced. Anthony Fauci showed how vulnerable we are to such bureaucracy.
Phylis Schlaffley a conservative was the first of those fifteen, notice the lefty "left"that out
I hope the united states governement apologizes to you. You were backstabbed by people who should have been embracing you. so stupid to put money over the good nature of proper brain circuitry.
PROFESSION?
Well was listening while falling asleep and could have bet I was listening to a Jew talking about social engineering a new society instead it's an Antiochian Greek Orthodox Christian, Ralph Nadar preaching how everybody needs to combine into 'one massive blob' to save the world? No? I'm wrong? He is talking about a 'fantasy' future, whereby there will be all these new technologies, endless job opportunities, endless supply of jobs, etc.sounds like a pep talk from the 50's? This talk from what I see was put on 7 years ago and I am probably only one who is analyzing this presentation differently, everybody who commented made him seem like a god?
The world has come around the corner since he made this talk but he should have seen most of what is environmentally happening today. If I were a young person I'd swear he's telling me there's no problem to go out and multiply, add to 8 billion, make it 10 billion, plenty of resources, who needs habitat for animals when we (humans) need it? Screw acidic oceans, total nonsense, melting ice - that's what ice does is melt, who cares? Ralph is caught up in this economy of never ending growth and it is precisely that mental attitude that drives it forward everyday of the year; it's wrong, dangerous, insane.
You are an idiot.

some time after the 2000 election I was watching an old 60's episode of Hawaii 50 ( bear with me ) and they catch this guy after a car chase and the guy says "I don't get it, my car wouldn't go over 70", and McGarret is like "tell it to Ralph Nader" lololol
