In an interview with Fox News Bill O'Reilly, Ralph Nader said that
government and the two-party system have deteriorated to the extent that
"...the people must re-assert their sovereignty over government, their
elected representatives and corporate America..."
Nader's new book contains what he feels needs to happen in the future for
people to take back their political system:
Crashing the Party: How to Tell the Truth and Still Run for President
Author: Ralph Nader
Publisher: St. Martin's Press, Inc.
December 2001
>From the Publisher
Ralph Nader is one of America's most passionate and effective social
critics. He has been called a muckraker, a consumer crusader, and America's
public defender. The cars we drive, the food we eat, the water we
drink-their safety has been enhanced largely due to Ralph Nader. Time
magazine called him "the U. S.'s toughest customer." His inspiration and
example have rallied consumer advocates, citizen activists, public interest
lawyers, and government officials into action, and in the 2000 election,
nearly three million people voted for him.
An inspiring and defiant memoir, Crashing the Party takes us inside Nader's
campaign and explains what it took to fight the two-party juggernaut; why
Bush and Gore were really afraid to let him in on their debates; why
progressive Democrats have been left behind and ignored by their party; how
Democrat and Republican interests have been lost to corporate bankrolling;
and what needs to happen in the future for people to take back their
political system.
