1. Either is fine with me

Neither voted for war, in fact they both opposed it

[DemBones DemBones]

2. Dennis is proposing some great changes for this country, such as

universal health coverage ("Medicare E" -- Medicare for Everyone), protecting American jobs and strengthening unions (goodbye NAFTA, GATT, WTO, Taft-Hartley), protecting Social Security retirement and lowering full retirement age back to 65, repealing the Patriot Act and restoring our civil liberties. These are changes people will support.

3. Message I just sent to Dennis

"Dear Dennis,

Your strongest supporter on Talk Radio has been Mike Malloy - but yesterday he was really mad at you because you refused to come clean on the LIES spoken by Bush about the uranium from Africa and the aluminium tubes mentioned in the State of the Union message.

I hope at this crucial time you are not diving for cover.

Please use the L word - and if you cannot we would like to know WHY.

At this crucial juncture you will lose support if you fail to call a spade a spade.

Do not spoil your record.

Jacob Matthan
Oulu, Finland"

4. Please listen to the man instead of talk radio pundits:

"BUSH WHITE HOUSE MANIPULATED CONGRESS"

Kucinich continued his antiwar leadership in Congress by taking to the House floor again today to speak out against White House deception that led to war, and to demand public hearings.

"Two days before the vote, on October 8, 2002, speaking in Cincinnati, the President spoke of his determination to attack Iraq: 'Facing clear evidence of peril, we cannot wait for the final proof -- the smoking gun -- that could come in the form of a mushroom cloud.'

"This chilling, apocalyptic statement was not based on clear evidence of peril, but was in fact based on falsehoods, hidden from public view by the office of the Vice President.

"Did the Vice President's office knowingly conceal information its own representative obtained that Iraq was in fact not attempting to purchase nuclear materials from Niger? Was the White House in possession of this same information prior to the President giving his shocking declaration in Cincinnati?

"There is no question that the President's statements -- we now know were false and misleading -- influenced the debate in this House and the decision to go to war. It is imperative we have open, public hearings to wash this stain from our national reputation."

24. Why should Kucinich...

have to come clean about someone else's lies? He has called Bush and the administration liars on many occasions and what's more he has consistently offered up legislation to get to the bottom of Bush's lies.

[NetRizzo]

5. Great! Hopefully the trend continues.

All of us Kucinich supporters need to hit the streets.

[Desertrose]

6. Hey cool!

:hi: welcome NetRizzo...

another DK supporter...
:bounce:

7. That's why Dennis is getting slammed more.

I knew he'd start moving up after the Moveon poll. More people are waking up to the REAL progressiveness of his voice. ALL truth, NO showboatoing.

[goobergunch]

8. Democrats.com ENDORSED Kucinich, didn't they? (n/t)

[goobergunch]

12. dupe of #9...sorry (n/t)

[goobergunch]

9. Democrats.com ENDORSED Kucinich, didn't they? (n/t)

[blm]

10. yes...

a few months ago.

[jiacinto]

11. That site endorsed Kuchinich

And the internet is hardly an accurate sampling of public opinion.

[genius]

14. Citizens for Legitimate Government also endorsed Kucinich

Dennis has a lot of support.

[Desertrose]

19. if that is true & applies to DK...it also

applies to Dean Kerry & the others,eh Jiacinto??

Then DU is also obviously not an accurate sampling of public opinion...

But the endorsements for DK are accurate & all the people I connect one to one with are also accurate...

food for thought....

Peace

[JohnKleeb]

13. way to go

keep it up

[Fleshdancer]

15. If Dean is going to lose to anyone,

may it be to Kucinich. Congrats to the Kucinich campaign!

[JohnKleeb]

18. thanks most of us like Dean and arent giving up hope

I hope those two like each other.

[election_2004]

16. this shows...

That Kucinich is gaining momentum and really beginning to hit his stride.

I'm working on getting him for an appearance at my college campus.

[bobthedrummer]

17. It's 5AM here in N.E. Wisconsin

Good news indeed before I get some sleep.

After I wake up, I'll keep waking up people to DK, one by one.

:hi: to all.

[Desertrose]

20. Hey Bob...did you see this link??

:hi:

Our friend Pablo is getting busy !!!!!

21. Holy cow

That's quite a turnaround.

Yippee for Dennis.

And look at the bump in Edwards. Personally Edwards is fourth or fifth on my list. How do Kucinichites feel about him?

[LWolf]

22. Edwards gave * the go ahead

for the war in Iraq. So did Lieberman, Kerry, Gephart, and Graham.

That takes him, and them, off my list for the primary.

I've checked out his site; he sounds good on many issues. I want a candidate who will vote as good as he sounds.

I don't really have an order behind DK; he is my choice. When it is time to face *, my vote will go to ABB.

[Nicholas_J]

23. Good for Dennis

I suport Kerry, as most electable, bit would GLADLY support Kucinich as an alternative if given the nomination.

[killbotfactory]

25. Winning a poll on a website where he was previously endoresed..

and bought advertising on is nice and all, but have you seen any of the other polls where he is at 1% pretty much everywhere?

[GreenPartyVoter]

26. Of all the Dems running

I like Dennis best.
