Ninety days is how long Democratic presidential hopeful Dennis Kucinich says it will take to get U.S. troops out of Iraq after having the United Nations take over peacekeeping duties.

“It was wrong to go in and it’s wrong to stay,” he said before some 200 people in Ashwaubenon Saturday, just days before the Wisconsin Democratic presidential primary on Tuesday. “I am running as the candidate to bring our troops home.”

Kucinich said that under his plan, the U.S. would help subsidize a U.N. peacekeeping mission and reconstruction of the country while paying for the damage caused by the war.

“I think it’s really inspiring that he’s stayed in the race and think it’s important,” said Paulie, a 20-year-old Lawrence University student from Madison who has already cast an absentee ballot for Kucinich. “I think it’s really important to push for who you think is best, whether or not it looks like they’re going to win the race.”
