Try this on friends and family . . .
Take Dennis Kucinich's position on whatever issues are most important to you. Say a dozen or so issues.

Write them on piece of paper. Do not identify the source of the position.

Show to friends and family. If your experience is typical, there will be something like 90 percent agreement from 90 percent of the people, unless perhaps you come from some aristocratic family and all your friends are bond coupon clippers and ceo's.

The only thing holding Kucinich back is the press. Which happens to be owned by people like Rupert Murdoch, who happens to raise money for people like Hillary Clinton.

1. What's holding Dennis back - he's not CAMPAIGNING in IOWA!
You have to work for people's votes. Edwards, Obama, Clinton, et al, are out there hustling from town to town, house to house spreading their message. Dennis is AWOL. It's too bad. I support Edwards, but Dennis has been a disappointment - NOT taking his message to the people.

2. So true - I like Dennis too but
his lack of organized campaigning and hate to say it, his impeachment attempts of Cheney (of which I wholeheartedly agree) are not doing him any favors.
