MAHALO, HAWAII! - from Dennis Kucinich
Here is a letter from Hawaii campaign co-organizer Ave Diaz:

February 25, 2004 http://www.kucinich.net/mahalo.php



Maui, Hawaii, Kucinich National Volunteers, Campaign Staff, and Congressman Dennis Kucinich deserve a big Mahalo (Thank you!) for sending a message of hope to the world! Come Celebrate Victory for Kucinich! Congratulations Maui! Kucinich won in all Maui County Districts! Seabuscuit came in right behind the War Admiral on this turn!

Kucinich Volunteers and the public are invited to a Victory Party at the Hard Rock Cafe in Lahaina! Get Ready to Celebrate and Rock the Vote!



The event will feature a special appearance by Carrie Dann, a Western Shoshone leader in political and legal battles to retain ancestral lands from being turned over to military control for testing weapons (of mass destruction). Date, Time and Music Guests forthcoming... We will send posters...more on this to come.

Maui made a great splash, sending out a positive wave to the rest of the nation, carrying the Progressive Kucinich message of hope and peace!

Mahalo to the many volunteers coordinating, communicating, speaking,organizing, recruiting, planning, writing, phoning, e-mailing, fundraising,cooking, sewing, talking, chalking, sign waving, networking, caucusing, and all the myriad of other tasks you all do to promote Dennis!



It is important to keep up the recruitment efforts for Super Tuesday and beyond 'till the very end, to stand united under the best candidate, Kucinich! Knowing we support Kucinich, the most honest, astute, peace promoting candidate, makes the heart leap gleefully like a little child on a bright beautiful day, full of promise.

In promoting Dennis, it is good to ask that if Kerry & Edwards were fooled twice into supporting an unecessary war, will they be fooled again?

Kucinich is the only candidate running who did not get fooled by the WMD lies, who instead of war will deliver: Universal Health Care, Social Security Benefits at 65, Withdrawal from NAFTA and WTO, Repeal of the "Patriot Act" the Right to Choose, Privacy and Civil Rights, Balance between Workers and Corporations, Guaranteed Quality Education, Pre-K through College, A Renewed Commitment to Peace and Diplomacy, Restored Rural Communities and Family Farms, Environmental Renewal and Clean Energy. Go Dennis, Go! Run Dennis, Run!!!!



Keep writing letters of appreciation to your local papers for what Dennis is doing, keep raising money for the campaign and keep responding to media alerts on Dennis at http://www.kucinich.us/mediawatch.php! We know that if the media slants toward Dennis, we will have a landslide. We <just> have to convince the media to frame him as the winner! Minor...

Ho'omaluhia (Making Peace) for the World, with Kucinich!

Ave Diaz

1. Why did the media report the Edwards bounce in WI
but not the Kucinich surprise in HI? The amount of control that Faux et. al. has over public opinion is really scary.

4. Right. Kucinich was branded "unelectable" several months ago.

7. Hypocrites!
I thought Edwards also was tagged as "unelectable" until after WI.

5. Congrats for Dennis. We know he has THE message.
The truth of the message and the integrity behind it continues to be suppressed, both passively and actively. One day it may explode across the land like the top of Mt. Saint Helens over Spirit Lake.

Peace.

10. Mahalo. Enjoyed the photos.
The media is feckless and clueless. We cannot rely on them to get our message out.
