But Kerry runs the risk of moving to the right, not only during the campaign but also in office, becoming (politically, not personally) another Bill Clinton and alienating a large part of the Democratic constituency. He needs to remember that progressives are also part of the party – and that urban issues are key to its future. And the best way to send that message is by voting for Dennis Kucinich.

Kucinich isn't going to win the nomination, and if this were a really close race, we might not endorse him. In 2004, against an incumbent Republican, Kucinich is absolutely unelectable. But he's an inspirational candidate who is almost universally right on the issues, and he's put on the table concepts that none of the other Democrats want to talk about.

Context counts, Freddie. As much as you'd like to pretend otherwise, it still matters.
