The world according to Dick Gregory
Some interesting comments from long time activist Dick Gregory, including this one:

On Ralph Nader's presidential run:

"If Ralph Nader asked me today, I would tell him, go to the Democrats and say: 'I will get out of the race under one condition. If you win, I want you to make me head of the FDA.' I could go to bed happy every night knowing that Ralph Nader is head of the FDA. I know how intelligent he is. I know how he feels about the underdog. But what he's doing doesn't make sense."
