Ralph Nader Is Serious: "Only the Super-Rich Can Save Us!"

 

Ralph Nader has had an illustrious career as a consumer advocate and a controversial one as a politician. With the recent release of "Only the Super Rich Can Save Us!", Nader can now add "fiction writer" to his resume. In short, the book is about a group of super-wealthy Americans, led by Warren Buffett, who mount a counterattack against the greedy corporations and their fat-cat lobbyists who have a stranglehold on Washington D.C. and the media. Nader calls it "political science fiction" and a progressive response to Ayn Rand.
As you'll see in the accompanying clip, Nader is bringing all the passion he's displayed in other venues to promoting the book, and its message:
"It's a thrilling power collision, full of good ideas people can pick up and start thinking bigger," Nader says. "It addresses the key question: Popular forces are going nowhere in this country...even if liberals and conservatives agree on a particular issue and agenda because they don't have the money to hire the organizers, to hire the advocates to get to the media that the other, corporate side does."
