Straight talk about George W. Bush, corporate government, and the whole charade of presidential campaigning -- from the last honest man in American politics Ralph Nader -- brilliant visionary, relentless activist -- may be the most honest man left in politics. And yet his presidential campaigns have faced consistent opposition -- mainly from Democrats afraid that competition from an inspiring independent could dent their voting block.Now, in The Good Fight, Nader swings back harder than ever at those who "want to block the American people from having more voices and choices" and have lost touch with the concept that votes must be earned, not inherited or entitled. While taking on corporate-occupied Washington and the government's daily abuse of ordinary citizens, he urges a speedy return to stronger civic motivation. If fed-up citizens don't actively join the fight for better leadership, then ultimately we have no one to blame but ourselves for the inadequate checks on the erosion of our civil liberties.In an era when politicians sell us rhetoric and then sell out our principles, Nader stands as a crucial voice of candor. The Good Fight is a stirring response to politics as usual, one that will captivate readers of all political stripes and help us define what we must do to shape the brightest future for our nation.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Ralph Naderrelentless activist, brilliant visionarymay also be the most honest man weve got left in politics. And yet from the moment Nader declared his presidential candidacy, hes faced relentless opposition, mainly from Democrats fearing that competition from an inspiring independent could dent their voting block as it did in 2000. Even his old pals at The Nation joined the party panic. Now, in The Good Fight, Nader swings back harder than ever at those who want to block the American people from having more voices and choices and have lost touch with the concept that votes must be earned, not inherited. He takes on corporate-occupied Washington and the governments daily abuse against ordinary citizens. And most of all, he urges a speedy return to stronger civic motivation. In an era when politicians sell us rhetoric and then sell out our principles, Nader stands as a crucial voice of candor. The Good Fight is a call to awareness and action that will captivate readers of all political stripes and help us define what we must do to shape the brightest future for our nation. The consumer advocate and independent presidential candidate furnishes a review of the social, economic, and political conditions in the United States and describes how citizens can fight for improvement against a corporate-dominated system.
