Review: Ralph Nader: An Unreasonable Man (documentary)

I voted for Ralph Nader during the 2000 Presidential elections. This was a bold at the time. Despite New York being a sure ticket for the Democrats, it was worried that Nader (and the Green Party) were splintering the Democratic vote. Nonetheless, I voted my conscience and even considered volunteering for the Green Party during future elections.
And then the hailstom hit.
Since, Ralph Nader, a man who won the confidence and trust by the American people by looking out for their safety & security became a pariah.
This documentary shows the rise of Nader, his battles against big business. It follows "Naders Raiders" as they idealistically attempt to change Washington for the better.

Although I found the documentary infuriating towards the end ... I have strong opinions about people attacking Nader. It was a wonderful portrayal of the man's life.
