Hi there, all you disenfranchised Liberals, Progressives, and frustrated Democrats! If John Kerry is too old-school for you, Dennis Kucinich is your man!

Check out his website at www.kucinich.us.

Cheers,
Michael

He is also leading the Congressional charge to investigate the high crimes and misdemeanors of the Bush administration's lies about WMD in Iraq:

Kucinich is the only candidate representing what Paul Wellstone referred to as "the Democratic wing of the Democratic Party". He has my vote in the MoveOn.org primary!

Good Ohio boy. I've almost started a thread like this several times myself Michael. No one gives him a snowball's chance in Hell, but I've loved this guy for a long time. Bobertz wife I think has O' Bobertz on him too. Hope springs eternal but.......

I like the guy. Unfortunately, by the time the primaries happen, the candidate has usually already been picked for political reasons. Of course, we can trust the Democratic Party to be smart and choose the best guy for the job. Hahahahaha!

Vote in the Move-On pre-primaries for you preferred candidate. It'll help them drum up the revenue they need to launch a real campaign before the Primary. The "election" starts onlin e next Tuesday.

Register here.

he almost makes sense, and might be expected to work for the general good, instead of just his own vested interests....we can't have anyone like THAT hold high public office!

Well, Spawzer, I love the guy, even if he is from Ohio. Jus' funnin' with ya'. But he can't get electercated without a serious make-over. He, the boy took off right where Jimmy Trafficant left off in "style points". He's got to quit cutting his own hair and quit buying his suits at the Salvation Army thrift shops.

Hey, Dennis the Menace could be real fun. He led the House against passing the rubber stamp "Let-Go-Kill-Us-Some-Sand-Niggas" resolution. He is the arthur of the Department of Peace legislation and he speaks the friggin' truth...

But your gonna have to take him aside and get the Yoda look off hi 'er he ain't got a chance...

But I love him...

He's got my vote, as well. But as to winning, maybe he ought to look into elevator shoes...statistics show Americans usually vote for tallest candidate...ah, informed voters!

For better and for worse Ohio has given us a lot of presidents. Kucinich stands as good a chance as McKinley, or Taft. I think they were both Ohio boys. Get on a raft with Kucinich?

Oh please.....Let's not get into Ohio Presidents. Along with those two "winners" you already mentioned we gave the nation such "greats" as William Henry Harrison (born in Virginia, but claimed Ohio as home) who fortunately croaked after only a few weeks in office; U.S.Grant, a good general but a really lousy president; Rutherford Hayes, a one termer with the great achievement of making the first phone call from the White House....probably ordered take-out; James Garfield, so bad he was assassinated after only four months in office....interestingly, the wound didn't really kill him, but bad doctors did. I guess he just had to go; Harrison #2(Benny), the grandson of William Henry....so bad we've passed him off to Indiana; and of course the inimitable Warren G. Harding who makes any other president look superb by comparison!

Gee, Spaw, I never thought of that -- ya mean Ohio was responsible for all those guys? I mean what d'ya think it is -- the water, maybe? Or do O'yans   have a bizarre cultural tradition of elevating ineptitude to an art?

He sounds great. He doesn't stand a chance.

But I'll probably vote for him in the Move-On pre-primary.

Well, I think Howard Dean has a better chance than poor ol' Dennis, but heck, I'd love to see a Dean/Kucinich ticket. They'd loose but they'd certainly give the American people something to think about. That is, if the average American is any longer able to think anymore.

Yeah, I'd take a sabbatical from the Green Party to work in that campaigne. Yeah, Bush tries to keep "class warfare" at bay by accusing the Dems of usin' it so the Dems, in turn, try carefully to aviod it. Stupid thinking. Dennis and Howard would make it into an art.

And Boss Hog would squealm like the pig that he is thru millions of dollars worth of "The Voice" commercials telling Americans what dangerous folks Dennis and Dean are. Oh, what a campaigne, especially if the economy is still in the tank, which the latest raiding of the piggy bank, should insure...

He was a lousy, incompetent mayor here. After Dubya, we need someone competent. My choice is Dr. Howard Dean, the former governor of Vermont, the first state to allow civil unions of gays and lesbians and the only state with a socialist congressman.

I like Dean too. Do you think he could beat Bush? If not, what's going on? You want four more years of Bush?

Vote Green and put Bush in office. Spare me your idealism.

Gee, it took you a while, Doug. Thought you'd gone soft or something...

But then, I wasn't addressing you, was I? Those of us who still dare hope for a better world, rather than resigning ourselves to docile submission, are participating in a discussion you have opted out of long ago.

Cheers,
Michael
