I just watched a documentary about Ralph Nader. He seems like a pretty cool guy.

Yes he is. Which documentary did you watch?
10:03 PM
Ralph Nader: An Unreasonable Man. The title makes more sense after watching the intro.
2:14 PM
I saw that when it came out.
4:36 PM
It was pretty good. Someone who reviewed it said it was "balanced", but I felt like it was pretty pro-Nader with a sprinkling of haters.

I watched a documentary from National Geographic, about two weeks ago, on Area 51 declassified if you're interested it's on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-DrVY3oBn8&feature=player_embedded
