Ralph Nader Is One of the Most
Ralph Nader
Ralph Nader is one of the most famously incorruptible characters in modern American history. Born of Lebanese immigrant parents, Nader obtained an exceptionally good education, and then single-mindedly took on the entire automotive industry's dangerous automobile designs. After Nader's initial victory and fame from Unsafe at any Speed, he was certainly not a "one-hit wonder," prolifically writing more than ten books dedicated to enhancing the public good, and founding several key organizations that doggedly fight for that same public good. His currently unpopularity reminds me of Abraham Lincoln's rabid unpopularity before the American Civil War. Though Lincoln was reviled, burned in effigy and ultimately assassinated in the 1860's, he now stands as an American model of honesty and resoluteness. Nader, who has incurred the recent wrath of liberals because his 2000 Presidential candidacy resulted in the election of George Bush, nevertheless continues to fight for the public good through his many books and organizations. History will probably be far kinder to Nader due to his relentless fight for the public good, which started more than 50 years ago and apparently will continue through the rest of his life.
