To some degree. Though I think Ralph Nader eventually became enraptured by insanity/evil/the dark side of the force towards the end. I saw in him a fallen spirit.
Goodness yes. Idealism. But the very last time I saw him on public television. He was in deep despair and fighting on the wrong side of his ideals.
I see in myself, or what was myself many years ago. If you go by time, Ralph Naders same idealistic desire to help spread enlightenment. The altar of sacrifice is pointless in the grand scheme of things. I am free to help through example and quest for perfection without forcing it through power and control. I will let government be government and give my feedback as I have been doing. I've seen the waves of enlightenment hit on slashdot about the NSA. It works. It's out of my hands. I'm free from fear. The forest is just a forest and I will take a knee and act in the present.
