Kucinich's record shows he's an antidote to Bush (Opinion piece)

[AnAmerican]

"Knowing that our chances to win are improved, it is imperative that the Democrats select the presidential candidate who would be best able to solve our many problems at home and abroad.

Many people measure candidates by their campaign war chests, their oratory or their political allies. In the long run, there are three important things we as voters need to know about a candidate. Are their policies right for the country? Do they have the integrity to really pursue those policies, if elected? Are their policies consistent with what they have been doing?

After watching and reading about the Democratic candidates for president, I find that Congressman Dennis Kucinich has the best grasp of the situation we are facing as a nation. For almost every issue I care about, Kucinich has a well-thought-out policy that is consistent with the courageous work he has been doing for years as co-chairman of the Progressive Caucus in Congress."

3. Double kick

and you know I'm really sick to death of watching good articles on Kucinich fall like bricks while hundreds of threads about poor picked on Dr. Dean get posted.

Sorry, Dean supporters, nothing personal, but sometimes that gets irritating.

4. Another kick for the incredibly fair subject line!

I'm happy that Kucinich is running because, win or not, he has ideas that should be heard. AnAmerican, your "(opinion piece)" disclaimer just gained you a lot of credibility. Personally, I agree with many of the opinions in the article, but it's still refreshing to see information posted here so fairly.

Thanks!

5. Thanks for the comment....I try to be fair

Admittedly that is sometimes hard.
