Ralph Nader is an American hero. Born in Connecticut, he graduated from Princeton and Harvard Law School, then entered Army service. Nader became famous when his best-selling 1965 book, "Unsafe at Any Speed," exposed the auto industry's unsafe automobiles and led to life-saving safety laws. For decades, Nader has fought relentlessly to protect Americans from powerful corporations and make government responsive.

For decades, Nader has confronted political and corporate bosses, fighting insurance companies, unfair global trade deals, and lobbyists who block safety standards and justice for injured parties. His lifelong integrity and tireless commitment to the public interest have made Nader among the most admired and influential Americans. He stands out as a public figure we can trust as president.
