senate and with ralph nader pin in 2000. i would take hikes away carry arthur schlesinger's biography, i would read it when we paused during the height. so i ran for the senate in 1990 and was ahead in the polls but charles schumer it also geraldine ferraro so it was a strong lineup. but there was a lot of scandal whiff t12 but he was the better candidate as a force of nature. >> i don't think i am dead interesting that so many forces are freaks of nature like chuck schumer was so smart and driven knowing how to raise money. he brought himself to the edge of majority leader. >>host: what does that mean he bought himself to the edge? >> the very good question but god only knows we know it when we see it and check had that. and with bill buckley. and then to have a talent. to have a lot of lies but ended up running against blumberg, schumer, bloomberg and they did what it takes to win. but do whenever you have to do. just don't get caught. to be tough as nails. there are moments of my public life that was edgy ethically but wh

before ralph nader, there were extra packages. let me talk about bridges a little bit that are symbolic as much as roads are. here's a bridge that looks like a fairly ordinary bridge. is it safe or unsafe? this is the minneapolis highway 35 bridge that became famous in 2007 when it collapsed suddenly during rush-hour traffic. it took everybody by surprise. it was a bridge that stood for 40 years and had been inspected regularly house was the federal requirement and get this happened to it. this is what is not supposed to happen. it was traced for some inadequate design inc. and probably something that should have been caught but wasn't and was a very sad occurrence. we don't want this to happen obviously. what happened after that was interesting because the replacement bridge was built within about a year, something we are not used to but you can get a bridge built in a relatively short period of time. this was a drawing of the planned replacement bridge and there wathat there was a timelit up. .. >> >> to detect problems with the

for being theion next ralph nader? >> we have the ability to flip the vote.nger generation is a underdog and a flipped economy. isther, let me say that it clear that the american people are not happy with their current establishment candidate. they are told to be good little boys and girls, don't rock the boat. but we know these are the most disliked and un-trusted candidates for president in our history. even a majority of their supporters. mostly support them. supporters don't mostly support them. >> what will it say in terms of the economy? economye calling for an that works for every day people. survive.struggling to the average wage for workers is barely above the poverty level. most jobs that have come back are part-time low-wage and temporary. we are calling for a green new deal. we know how to do this. in this case it is a green new deal. it solves not only the economic crisis and puts people to work, 20 million good wage jobs. they are focused on a transition that can solve the crisis of climate change, jobs and clean, renewable energy that will move

look at the difference ralph nader made in new hampshire. look at the difference a ralph nader voter made in the state of florida. let me ask you, are you comfortable if your percentage was seen as the difference between trump carrying a state and clinton carrying a state if your voters prevented clinton from carrying it but gave it to trump and the presidency. would you be comfortable with that? >> i'm not comfortable with donald trump gettingie le electd i'm not comfortable with hillary clinton getting elected. donald trump says horrific things, and hillary clinton led us to catastrophe in libya. who wants to start an air war over syria with russia that could lead us into a nuclear n conflagration? >> so you don't think one is worse than the other? >> i don't think what donald trump says s in fact, worse than what hillary clinton has done. donald trump says horrible things about immigrants, but hillary clinton, on the other hand, has been dropping bombs. she approved the war in iraq that killed 1 million people alone in iraq. i think we're

number two, don't you think that remembered in history as the next ralph nader if trump gets elected? that is my question. i would say of all again, i believe donald trump will not reelected. he is not a viable candidate. .hat is just the reality of it i am not concerned about electing donald trump. i intend to do everything i can to ensure he is not elected and the same is true with hillary clinton. my issue with hillary clinton, i want to make this clear, is nothing to do with her -- it does have to do with political positioning but more than that it is about her belief that she is unaccountable to the american people. oflive in a time when 82% americans feel this country is on the wrong track. americans consider themselves independents, only 28% consider themselves members , 28%ther political party on the democratic side. both of these major candidates have skyhigh negatives. the american people are desperate for better leadership. i don't believe hillary clinton is doing that. i don't believe her positions on issues does that and that is why i am opposing her as well as donald tru

i would love to talk about this with ralph nader. he is joining me now on the phone. mr.lcome. first, your reaction to all of this this week. >> well, i think it is sort of greed on steroids here. you've got a company that was making good money at $100, and in the last two or three years has jacked it up, as you said, $600. they're getting away with it because there is no generic alternative and the other competitor had problems with dosage and had to withdraw from the market. there is a de facto monopoly. the "wall street journal" today called it a stranglehold on the market, that mimilan corporatioo charge whatever they can get. they're basically hitting very, very vulnerable people. parents desperate about their children with very serious allergens. this is a life-threatening situation and it is sort of a pay or die situation. now what's happening is the backlash is very encouraging. with good reporting like cnn on this day after day, millions of people now are alert to it. there is a massive national petition under way started by a mother in connecticut. you can get t

. >> to me it's a ralph nader move. but at least he did it the right day. >> and the libertarians have their candidate on the ballot, so does the american independent party. if you are saying write i but you can vote, none of these candidates if that's your choice. >> we have that option. >> yes, nevada only. >> thank you. >>> the las vegas walk of stars is honoring the life of juan gabriel. >> yeah, the singer and songwriter died at his home in santa monica, california last night and we have been watching today as fans have been stopping by, to take photos, talk about their favorite songs. all over the world. >> this is something who set the standard, opened a lot of doors. as an artist, the way he contributed himself to his art, his dedication, lifetime, the sacrifices that he went through are still an inspiration to us. >> he was set to perform in las vegas next month for mexican independence day. so fans who have tickets to that are asked t authority and kevin joins us now with a look outside. >> beginning of a new

we know about ralph nader in 2000 in florida. had not been in the race, al gore would have won florida by 20,000 votes approximately. he lost by 500, and that would have turned around the election in gore's favor. i doubt whether gore would have gone into iraq. we might not have had the 2008 financial meltdown with a democrat. 1844, there was a candidate by the name of james burney who ran on the liberty party, and abolitionist. he changed the outcome to the election. instead of henry clay coming polk camee, james k. in, and he was an expansionist and initiated the war with mexico. host: here is a little bit of third-party history, a chart from usa today. it shows that in 1948, governor strom thurmond of south carolina vote.out 2.4% of the george wallace of alabama, 1968, with the american independent 13.6 percent of the vote. 1980, representative john i, independent, 6.6% of the vote. perot, independent, 18.9% of the vote. reform partyrot's received 8.4 percent of the vote. and in 2000, ralph nader's green party with 2.7% of the

jill stein, as you know, your campaign has drawn parallels with ralph nader. virtually everyone who has researched that election says that ralph nader, who got over 97,000 voalts in the state of florida, cost al gore the state. al gore lost the state by 537 votes. so my question is: if this race gets close, why isn't it safe the assume that you're prepared to see hillary clinton lose to donald trump? because most of your votes would come from hillary clinton? >> well, i think it remains to be seen where our votes would come from. remember, the majority of donald trump supporters don't actually support him. they're mainly motivated by not liking hillary clinton. so how about we give those dissatisfied clinton opponents someone else they can vote for. in fact, many of bernie sanders' supporters, let me put this another way, many trump supporters used to be sanders supporters, and when sanders was wiped out, they proved over to trump. so we're trying to bring in the majority of americans. we're in a very different moment now historically than we were in 2000 beca

there was a third-party candidate then, ralph nader.ocrats blame him for taking support away from them. and then there was 1992, where ross perot was the third man standing against george bush, sr. and bill clinton. in that case, republicans blamed -- in that race republicans blamed perot from taking support from them. this election could come down to whether dissolution voters go for a third-party candidate or stick to one of the major two, or decide to stay home. katty: security forces in columbia carried out an operation to destroy 100 cocaine laboratories in the jungle. the five-day operation was part of a strategy to target producers and traffickers of cocaine, rather than the farmers . it is estimated the laboratories could produce 100 tons of cocaine every year. 22 people are missing after highway bridge connecting mumbai with a beach resort state in west india collapsed. we report from the scene of the collapse. correspondent: raging floodwaters tore down a huge section of the bridge on the main road. say that 2 buses or on the

ralph nader said no.e said this election season made people angry, and if there to tell you to blame, there's only one person to call -- ralph nader. but he cautioned that libertarian candidate gary johnson or the green party presented in a digital stein are not going to move into the white house. "this is going to be a better year for third parties, but all ," who got is about 3% 2.74% of the popular vote against bush and gore. 3% seems low given that johnson and steiner pulling at 9% and 2%. " polls for third-party candidates are always higher before labor day and then decline. people get cold feet in the voting booth. i was pulling a 5% the day before election day." and we have darren from california, up early. good morning. caller: good morning. i am a little disappointed. people in ourate country. one caller was talking about obama phones pay it was angry and i understand. do you know, what we need to -- i am considering a third-party, because i have not heard any innovative answers. to me, we have a

guest: unlike somebody like ralph nader, she was long before running for president, a green party activists the candidate for example against mitt romney in massachusetts. she has been involved for a long around issues like the environment. she ran in 2012 and now is overwhelmingly likely to be nominated by the green party. david: she is a medical doctor. she has made comments about what between vaccines and autism, something that has been disproven, but it is still widely talked about. how much does health care, her job in health care, effect what she does in the political arena? guest: she made comments about vaccines in which she referenced corporate control over regulation as something that could make people have less trust in vaccines. how she was practicing, issues were raised. it was a somewhat equivocal answer that people found unsatisfying on an issue where some people may really be looking to political leaders of all stripes as the validators, on a question of what you do with your kids. on twitter, she said after she got blowback about this, she is not aware of any evidence of a

he's not running for president, he's running to be what ralph nader was to al gore was in 2000.o siphon off enough votes to cost trump a state or two in the election. it's a way to give someone that cannot stomach to vote for hillary another place to go. he's allowed to do it. but it's not running for president. >> not a name a lot of people know. but in utah, who knows? >> where was this paradigm of virtue last november? >>> next up, closing guantanamo bay. >>> absolutely committed to closing the detention facility at guantanamo. >> you see a real desperation, really, where the administration is out there shopping around the world trying to find somebody, anybody to take these gitmo detainees because the obama administration is so desperate to empty out gitmo. >> there is no doubt about it. there is an effort to clear gitmo. you look at the numbers from the start of the president obama's time in office. 242 detainees at gitmo at that time two days later president obama issues executive order to close the prison there. ian 20th, 2013, the start of the second term 166 there. as o

vonnie: are you afraid at all or do you have concerns about getting a reputation for being the next ralph naderd of splitting the vote, i think we can flip the vote. it's not just a candidate that's the underdog, it's the american people. an entire generation in a rigged economy. underdogs are looking to become top dogs in a more equitable economy. let me say that it is absolutely clear that the american people are not happy with their current establishment candidates. they are told to begun little boys and girls and don't rock the boat. these are the most disliked and entrusted candidates in our history. even a majority of their supporters don't mostly support them. the greent what will party platform that you will take forward to the national general election, what will it say in terms of the economy act ? are calling for an economy that works for everyday people. it is barely above the poverty level. low-wage, temporary. a green newng for deal. it like the one that got us out of the great depression. it has been done before. it is a green new deal so it solves not only the economic crisis an

the choice of lieberman and snubbing of clinton gave third-party candidate ralph nader an opening on the left, and he would pull 3 million votes in the election came down to florida. gore failed to carry 10 states that clinton had carried in the 1996 election, any one of which would put him over the top. the supreme court decided the election which became president and bush was superb as a politician seeking votes but he had no executive experience, little knowledge of international affairs, had really not traveled abroad. a short extension, short attention span, genuinely believed he was god's agent put here on earth, with the exception of appointing colin powell as secretary of state, donald rumsfeld as secretary of defense and his friends as secretary of commerce, delegated the selection of his candidate and top federal officials to dick cheney and cloistered himself in the white house from texas, condoleezza rice as national security advisor and andy card as chief of staff. it is inconceivable franklin roosevelt would turn the selection of his cabinet to john garner or dwight eis

the last candidacy got substantially fewer votes than ralph nader. 470,000 votes to nader's nearly 3illion. her big push for sanders supporters is getting attention. green party presidential nominee jill stein joins us right now. thank you for being with us. and as we look at this, you're not giving up despite these numbers. you saw the numbers i was just discussing there. what's your breakthrough strategy here? >> let me say those numbers are actually astonishing considering that we have received practically zero coverage from mainstream media up until now. we came from invisible polls to now even 6% and 7% in some of the polls. what we're seeing if a groundswell for something else and it's no secret that the american people do not like and do not trust either of the establishment candidates and they have record rates of disapproval. the american public is hungering for an honest broker. i'm a physician. not a politician. and i'm here to actually provide the things the american people need because i'm the one candidate that doesn't take the money from corporations, lobbyists or supe

there was ralph nader in 2000 and one of the most successful in recent memory, ross pirot, received 19 percent of the popular vote and cost george bush 41 a second term. >> when someone votes for a presidential election, oftentimes what that means is that the person that they would have otherwise voted for is harmed by their vote. >> reporter: polls say there's an appetite for another option. in 2014, 58 percent, three out of five adults, said they believe a third party is necessary and gary johnson says he's the guy. >> i'm the only third party candidate that's going to be on the ballot in all 50 states. so all this talk about third third party talk every election cycle. gary johnson has done the third party thing before. in 2012, he received 1% of the popular vote, but experts say this unorthodox campaign cycle really is breathing new life into third party candidates. what he thinks is working and what's not working in the fight against the terror group isis. after meeting with his military and national security advisors, the president held a n he insisted the u.s. remain relentless

al gore could have been president had it not been for ralph nader and florida's 90,000 votes in 2000.nd you look at the numbers about gary johnson. how do you see the third party as a factor now? >> i think you have latinos looking at hillary and don't like her and don't want to vote for her but feel very strongly in their opposition of trump and looking at johnson as an alternative. the cuban vote is becoming less republican but has been strongly republican and if they good to johnson this creates a splintered market share, the outcome is uncertain. it can help hillary in some states, hurt her in others. we won't be able to know that for sure. if take thursday debate stage and reaches that 15% threshold that will throw the race to a new dynamic. >> week in latino vote. nevada colorado could be a factor. the opposite could be argued in places like pennsylvania, could it not? >> in pennsylvania, you have only a five percent hispanic eligible vote, which is always larger than the actual turnout vote. which is usually lower. so, trump's best opportunity is in pennsylvania where he can tu

progressives voted for ralph nader in florida. they say that i elected george w. bush. there was a real difference there. >> well, let's be clear. we could argue that that tl physical myth ol ji until the cows come home. i'll save that discussion for another day. we're in a very different political moment. most voters have rejected the democratic and republican party. the largest bloc of voters are now independent. democrats and republicans are a minority party. the majority of voters have rejected hillary clinton and donald trump and are for something else. so who are those on top to be giving marching orders to voters to be good little boys and girls? politician do not have a new form of entitlement. they're not entitled to our votes. hillary clinton and donald trump have not earned our votes. >> you are saying things no other candidate is willing to say. you talked about disarming the police back in july. because as a society, we e have become armed combatants, all of us. and in addition to police targeting, there are so many people who are just caught in the cross-f

ralph nader, change the elections outcome in florida and that brought george bush and to power ratherhan al gore. without nader, al gore would have been the president. but had played a role, there has played a lot more of them that have not played a role third for example, in 1980 john anderson got about 7% of the vote which was good but he didn't bring any issues to the table that changed anything. he didn't change it out, the election. does the outcome of the election. host: why has the third party struggle to gain a toehold here? we are used to the two-party system. we have had a two-party system since the founding. the republicans and the federalists and the whigs and the democrats. now the democrats and republicans. a two-partyd toward system. the other thing is that people may support a third-party during the election, then it comes time to the final time to vote and they feel if they vote for their third-party they will throw away the vote. the other aspect is very often a major party co-opt and issue. if they see and issue that is resonating with americans, they might've dumpe

. >> reporter: ralph nader played the spoiler in 2000, won just 2.7% of the vote nationwide, but pulled than 97,000 votes in florida. republican george w. bush beat democrat al gore in florida by just 537 votes. if most of nader's supporters had voted for gore instead, gore would have won florida, and been elected president. >> just moments ago, i spoke with george w. bush and congratulated him on becoming the 43rd president of the united states. >> reporter: when nader was questioned about his campaign's role in gore's loss, he brushed it off. >> by the way, i do think that al gore cost me the election especially in florida. and that's far greater concern whether i was supposed to help elect al gore. >> reporter: in 2016 an election year where both major party candidates have a likability problem, third party candidates see an opening, once again. randi kaye, cnn, new york. >>> up next the u.s. supreme court weighs in on a transgender high school student's battle over which restroom he can use. crabfest is on at red lobster so come dive into dishes like the new alaska bairdi crab dinne

this is something that ralph nader understood long before the rest of us and stepped out very courageously in 2000. and i think we will look back on that period and find ralph to be an amazingly prophetic figure. nobody understands corporate power better than ralph. and i think now people have caught up with ralph. and this is, of course, why i support dr. stein and the green party. we have to remember that 10 years ago, syriza, which controls the greek government, was polling at exactly the same spot that the green party is polling now -- about 4%. we've got to break out of this idea that we can create systematic change within a particular election cycle. we've got to be willing to step out into the political wilderness, perhaps, for a decade. but on the issues of climate change, on the issue of the destruction of civil liberties, including our right to privacy -- and i speak as a former investigative journalist, which doesn't exist anymore because of wholesale government surveillance -- we have no ability, except for hackers. i mean, this whole debate over the wikileaks is insane. did ru

we all know what happened to ralph nader in florida, 92,000 votes, threw florida to a "w." afraid you might take votes away from the left that would throw it to the other side or take votes from the right and throw it to the other side as well? >> well, this is a party that needs spoiling, chris. really -- >> which one? >> clinton gets elected, trump gets elected, the polarization in congress is going to be greater than ever before. our line is elect us, we will be bipartisan, we will hire democrats and republicans, all of them libertarian leaning but being able to call out both sides to come to the middle and let's deal with issues that we can come together on. it's a broad six-lane highway do the middle that neither republicans or democrats right now are occupying. >> who's the last independent to win a state? presidential history? >> george wallace. >> yeah. can you imagine his success, any region of the country? >> oh, sure. gary is already polling within a couple points of the lead in the state of utah. other states in that pillar from the dakotas right on down to the

so energy action is this liberal group, sort of a a ralph nader type group led by the sky james -- who work for kennedy on the hill, it's financed by people you have heard of like paul newman and robert redford. this was the hot issue of the day, regulation and they would run a commercial called mugging. in which they have somebody dress in arab car with a gasoline nozzle going up to an american driver holding him up, only then to reveal that the close, off and it's a big oil executive. so that is is the popular perception at the time. >> this is all carter and his team in the white house have to try to deal with. it is just completely overwhelming. and into this a couple of things happen. number one the 78 midterm elections come along. democrats retain the majority but it's clear they are losing speed and you describe, you say say there was a panic at the white house, yes. >> this is when fidel kicked it into high gear and says we're going to get creamed in 1980. by the way the way here we are in georgia, we should point out who won a seat in congress that year to know who i'm talking

second is returned to sender by ralph nader how do you sift through all of this? do you like to read? >> i love to read the tabloids and joy of reading since i was a little kid i was very bookworm i used to lead or fiction and they don't read any now and that is the occupational hazard of a job like this but we get to a luge with books and everybody tries to get us to review their bucks. so it is the embarrassment. i can read anything i want. so i can learn something in to bring some insight for readers to more often than not. >> the most innocent classic classic book i have read was on politics? >> i love that book martin first of all, there are so many speechwriter memoirs and life is too short. but i picked his up and because he was speechwriter to governor sam byrd of south carolina that most of the world came to know when he gave an extraordinarily rambling speech confessing he was not hiking the appalachian trail but was in argentina with his:friend of course, he was married. i that that is interesting and would be interesting to know what it is like to writ
