If you’ve ever been in a car accident, taken a prescription drug, breathed air, drunk a glass of water or dared to eat a hot dog, you may be alive because of Ralph Nader. The health and safety standards Nader helped implement in the 1960s and ’70s have saved over a million lives and prevented countless injuries. But when the Democratic Party took corporation donations and stopped fighting for democratic issues like affordable healthcare, repealing The Patriot Act, and ending the Iraq War...look out! The pinstripe-suited crusader leapt into the 2004 presidential race as an Independent candidate to save the America people from the corporate overthrow of their government. When the Democrats realized that having a slogan (“Anybody But Bush!”) and a wishy-washy pro-war candidate wasn’t enough to win the election, they spent millions of dollars hiring corporate law firms to kick Ralph Nader off the ballot in the most slanderous, dirtiest, undemocratic campaign in American history. Follow Nader's campaign photographer and filmmaker, Jürgen Vsych, as she travels across America with the avuncular agitator dismissed by the corporate-owned media as an egomaniacal “spoiler.” What was Ralph Nader thinking? Read this book and find out! Before Bernie Sanders, there was Ralph Nader. With photos by the author.
