Expensive designer brand famous for its classic polo shirts. Advertised as "Classic American style". A truly "prep" sort of style, not the Abercrombie or AE type. Though I am not a "prep" by any means (I am not even Caucasian, but Filipino), nor would I ever wish to be one, I own a large number of RL polo shirts and an RL business suit due to its subtle classy look and its good material and construction.

The guy that my fellow Americans should have voted for, but apparently they don't have enough common sense to see what kind of damage is being done to our country by the divisive two-party system. An honest and real candidate who cares about domestic concerns that Bush and Kerry seem to have forgotten about in favor of fear-mongering, focusing on the so-called "threat" of terrorism.

Don't kid yourself. Ralph Nader is man that has made millions from speaking fees then made more in investments in the same corporation he claims to hate. In the 1970s Nader claimed to live in a boarding house with a bathroom down the hall. Turns out he had a luxury home purchased in his brothers name. This is a man that stays in first class hotels. For all the "Democrats are corporate whores" talk he will not release his tax forms either.
He talks about not owning a car and they are unsafe. We should take the bus. Turns out he bums rides from employees in their *gasp* cars!
He also stopped his own employees from creating a union. many were making 13,000 a year salary for 60-80 hours a week workloads. Nader says:
"I don't think there is a role for unions in small nonprofit 'cause' organizations any more than ... within a monastery or within a union."
Totally ignores the point that most working for non-profits could give a shit less about the mission. They are there to make a living. To them it's a job and not a calling.
Although they had handling problems anyone that thinks he killed the Corvair should do some research and maybe google it. Those cars were expensive to produce, sold for very little, not many options and turned little in profit. Sales were down and GM had decided to kill the car but continued to make the car with poor sales in 1967-1969 to spite Nader claims. Anyone with a knowledge of cars could tell you the death of the Corvair was because of new cheaper models with fresh designs like the Camaro(Sept. 1966) and Mustang(april 1964). Mustangs and cougars 1964-1970 by the way have fuel tanks in the trunk that can explode on rear impact. Much like Pintos.

I agree with a lot of the words coming out of Ralph Nader's mouth. Too bad his real record does not match the rhetoric. Ralph Nader is just the anti-corporate version of Jessie Jackson.
Fuck Ralph Nader. I am getting a 1964 Corvair convertible.

When you put the penis of a dead corpse in your mouth and have a buddy jump on it's stomach so that all the dead juices squirt into your mouth. While they do this, someone else shoves a condom filled with frozen poop up their butt and your buddy pukes in the other guys mouth.

(n) 1. A politician who would have won the 2000 election if Al Gore didn't steal almost all of his votes and then have his brainwashed supporters turn around and falsely claim that said politician stole Al Gore's votes, because (according to their twisted form of 'logic') all votes truly belong to Democrats until people such as said politican use their evil satanic powers to convince people that elections are not horseraces and that voters should vote for who thay think should run the country, and not necessarily who will win.

Ralph Lauren was born as Ralph Rueben Lifshitz in The Bronx, New York to Ashkenazi Jewish immigrants from Belarus: Fraydl (Kotlar) and Frank Lifshitz, a house painter. From a young age he started working after school to earn money to buy suits.
Ralph Lifshitz attended the Salanter Academy Jewish Day School followed by MTA (now known as the Marsha Stern Talmudical Academy), before eventually graduating from DeWitt Clinton High School in 1957. In MTA Lauren was known by his classmates for selling ties to his fellow students. In his Clinton yearbook he stated under his picture that he wanted to be a millionaire. At the age of 16, Ralph's brother Jerry changed their last name from Lifshitz to Lauren (although Ralph's brother Lenny retained the name Lifshitz). In the summertime Ralph Lifshitz attended Camp Roosevelt (Monticello)
He went to the Baruch School of Business and Civic Administration of the City College of New York (now known as Baruch College) where he studied business, although he dropped out after two years. From 1962 to 1964 he served in the United States Army. After his discharge in 1968, he married Ricky Low-Beer. He did not attend fashion school, but worked for Brooks Brothers as a salesman. In 1967, with the financial backing of Norman Hilton, Lauren opened a necktie store where he also sold ties of his own design, under the label "Polo". He later purchased the name from Hilton.

Ralph is a very interesting specimen. Sometimes, she seems african american, but others she seems, and quite convincingly so, to be an indian (we're talking curry munching, telstra working full blown indian). The common Ralph has anywhere from 22-120 dogs. She also sits home all day, doing nothing except eating pizza and watching porn.
man 1: Look at that Indian! Shes eating pizza
man 2: Look at that Negro! Shes eating pizza
james: That, my friends is no black guy or indian. That, is a Ralph.
