1. That's my boy Dennis!

It's so refreshing to see a politician who can look at the world situation in terms other than "U.S. (corporate) interests."

2. A man of integrity who speaks out for what is right

instead of supporting "the other side", and then waiting to test the direction of the wind.

I wish I lived in a country that was mature enough to welcome you as president, Dennis. What a nation that would be!

5. Go Dennis!

Now let's get more like him representing us. Support your Kucitizens, Deaniacs, Clarkies, etc. running for public office.
