8. You'll know when the election's over

and he hasn't been elected. That's a pretty good clue about unelectablility. And, I like Kucinich... but not enough to vote for him.

13. That doesn't make sense.

No one is going to win any election that has the interest of the people at heart. The media and voting machines are preventing it.

Get busy to make sure your vote is counted...regardless of your support.

What's wrong with a peace candidate? Not electable? That's pretty sad.

5. That's ok

SCOTUS makes the presidents these days.

He is only unelectable if you refuse to vote for him.

6. I was being sarcastic btw, Kucinich can win, really

Just in case anyone mistakenly thinks that I believe that.

I've just been going nuts trying for the last few days trying to explain to people why and how he can win.

16. Those are some good reasons

but too bad that people are so set in their own beliefs. Hopefully, the "tone" will change after the awesome second place Hawaii result.

9. Truth is not salable to amerika, the nation of denial.

That is the problem with democracy in a country that is made up of willfully ignorant people due to the wrong wing planned destruction of public education and mind numbing mass hypnosis of corporate globalist media.

15. Indeed, and like Truman

He doesn't give * hell. He just tells the truth, and Karl thinks it's hell.

11. Yet he's been elected to office a couple of times.

Yes, he's unelectable alright. And his issues are so "radical"!
He is so "far-out", he is part of the " lunatic fringe", blah, blah, blah.
Welcome to DU, tobys!
