Music and passion were always the fashion

Ralph Nader is sometimes criticized for his rumpled hair and suit, but one thing he has going for him is that he bears a slight resemblance to Barry Manilow. Manilow was on Oprah this week, and the women in the audience absolutely went crazy for him. Just as Manilow’s music touches the hearts of his fans, Nader’s message has a similar effect on his supporters, though in a political way. I was privileged to see him speak last night at Macalester College and at the University of Minnesota, and he was great!
