Ralph Nadir

Share definition Flag
Da infamous "young lawyer from Connecticut" who burst onto da transportation scene at da low point in da history of automobile safety, totally "ripped everything up like a tornadir", and belatedly prompted car-manufacturers to create models with stronger builds, collision-dampening construction, greater efficiency, lower emissions, seat belts, etc.
If it hadn't been for "unreasonable man" individuals like Ralph Nadir who forcibly dragged da auto-industry out of its lowest-of-lows safety-status, many of our modern-day vehicles would likely still be "unsafe at any speed".

Ralph Nader

Share definition Flag
A significant political figure that advocates the safety and security of the working class more than any other candidate running for office. Democrats oftentimes like to call Ralph a 'spoiler' because several thousand people voted for him in Florida. Not only is this a concieded notion, (that if Nader hadn't run for office, all of the people who voted for him would have immediately cast their vote towards gore) but they fail to realize that over 250,000 self-identified Democrats voted for George Bush in Florida. Strangely enough, the Democrats do not even bother to scold them. Moreover, a Democratic exit poll showed that Ralph’s votes came 25% from Republicans, 38% from Democrats, and the rest were nonvoters who would have only voted for Ralph.
No one is entitled to votes. They must be earned. Nowhere in the constitution are political parties even mentioned. If a certain party is loosing followers to another party, maybe they just aren't trying hard enough.

Striver 

Share definition Flag
The striver is an interesting phenomenon that is seen across college campuses. In essence, the striver is an over-achiever who comes from a working or middle class family. He may be an immigrant. He may have been a slacker in HS who was "born again" into an academic wunderkind. Or he may just be an over-achiever who is keeping at it.

The striver is willing to sacrifice his social life at the expense of Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. The striver is the guy who stays at the library long after you are gone. The striver is the guy who takes 30 credits/semester and considers anything below an A/4.0 failure. The striver doesn't work on campus, he is too busy finding ways to pad his resume instead of working retail or workstudy. The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study. For the striver, their fun comes from the rewards they expect to receive in return for their diligence. Be it Law School, B-School, academia, or politics. The striver seeks to find the American Dream through academic success.
Anthony was a striver. He transfered from a TTT to an IVY and graduated in 2 years. He studied his ass off and went to Penn Law. He got a Biglaw offer. But lost it all because of an unmoderated mesasgeboard.

Successful strivers:
- Barack Obama
- Harold Koh
