DESCRIPTION:Ralph Nader is an internationally famous American political activist, 
 author, lecturer, and attorney. Areas of his particular concern and 
 expertise include consumer protection, humanitarianism, environmentalism, 
 and democratic government. In an era when the Occupy movement is sharpening 
 critical consciousness, yet struggling to provide answers, Ralph Nader's 
 Seventeen Solutions is particularly welcome.\n\nEducated at Princeton, 
 Harvard University and Harvard Law School, Nader originally achieved 
 prominence in 1965 with the publication of his book Unsafe at Any Speed, a 
 scathing indictment of the safety record of American automobile 
 manufacturers in general, and most famously the Chevrolet Corvair. The book 
 led to congressional hearings and automobile safety laws passed in 1966, 
 including the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act. He was 
 instrumental in the creation of the Occupational Safety and Health 
 Administration (OSHA), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the 
 Consumer Product Safety Commission (CSPC), and the National Highway 
 Transportation Safety. \n\nRalph Nader is a six-time candidate for 
 President of the United States, having run as a write-in candidate in the 
 1992 New Hampshire Democratic primary, as the Green Party nominee in 1996 
 and 2000, and as an independent candidate in 2004 and 2008. \n\nNamed by 
 The Atlantic as one of the hundred most influential figures in American 
 history, and by Time and Life magazines as one of the most influential 
 Americans of the twentieth century, Ralph Nader has helped us drive safer 
 cars, eat healthier food, breathe better air, drink cleaner water, and work 
 in safer environments for more than four decades. \n\nHosted by Philip
