Your video, Ralph Nader on Trump’s Speech to Congress, has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

David Margulies (Ralph) passed away early this year. It kind of changes the tone for me. Still an excellent short.

And let's be honest. If Ralph Nader hadn't stepped in, GM would still be making cars like this for profits' sake.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

I don't think that "lesser of two evils" is the correct characterisation of voter behaviour over the last couple of decades. I'm sure you've seen Colbert's timely video on Nader. It's currently right over there in the sidebar ---->

Nader was an idealistic stand against the establishment for many people. The result was that it lost Gore the presidency and gave us Bush and Cheney for 8 years. In my opinion, the worst presidential period in my lifetime.

Vote idealistically if you want– me, I'll be holding my nose trying to fend off the apocalypse.

I have always liked Ralph.

Remember Howard Stern's movie "Private Parts"? a quote:
Researcher: The average radio listener listens for eighteen minutes a day. The average Howard Stern fan listens for - are you ready for this? - an hour and twenty minutes.
Pig Vomit: How could this be?
Researcher: Answer most commonly given: "I want to see what he'll say next."

Maybe Trump has the same thing going for him. He's crazy enough and ego-inflated enough to serve the "Ross Perot" or "Ralph Nader" role in losing the election for his party.

I'm all in favor of that, as someone who would tend to agree with a lot of the foundation principles of the Republican party, like "small government" and "fiscal conservatism". The problem is that the modern Republican party has exchanged those "foundation principles" with batshit crazy counterparts. It needs to go ahead and implode already to let some measure of sanity back in.

I spend a not inconsiderable amount of time trying to convince people to pronounce my name "Raif" instead of "Ralf" (Spelt Ralph...). It's made worse because I have never been able to find an explanation as to why there is an old English tradition of pronouncing it this way. The etymology of the name is no help, I can only assume that somebody mistook an l for i at some point and it stuck. Which is stupid. Not as stupid as "Ralf" sounds to me though, even if it makes more sense.

I still need to see Wreck it Ralph.

ughhhh. The premise has potential, but then they've given it to Adam Sandler.

Nope.

I'll just watch Wreck it Ralph again instead.

And between this, X-men and Destiny, I'm starting to think Peter Dinklage just got really lucky with Tyrion, because he's displayed an alarming lack of taste since GoT.

I'm happy to call the guy in the middle, Ralph Abraham, my friend. A truly brilliant and kind man and scholar.

It's no Gervais. Really nice on Bill Cosby, possibly wanted more on civil rights movement with all the insanely racist stuff going on though.

That Grand Budapest Hotel was brilliant though - it could have so easily been a disaster with the pacing and the atmosphere and style.. Ralph Fiennes gets huge, huge kudos from me.. Daniel Day-Lewis level stuff.
