[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to work at a Nader's Raider organization and had to make cold calls, and would often get yelled at about how he ruined 2000. But that was in in 2005, and I think that the animus has mostly disappeared. He's still around and as of 3-4 years ago was doing lefty events. Every so often you spy him around Dupont Circle. [b]I think everyone on the left in DC acknowledges him as the innovator he was.[/b] [/quote] This again. He poisoned his legacy in 2000 so badly that no one cares. There were others in the consumer protection movement as well, and much of what he did in the 1970s/80s would have been accomplished even without him.[/quote]
