I want a two party ticket in 08'!
Edited on Thu May-03-07 08:44 PM by soulcore
That's right I said it, even tho I know it will never happen.

I want to see President Denis Kucinich and V.P Ron Paul.

We can all dream right?

Could you imagine it?

A bipartisan, anti-war, pro-constitution administration? An administration with a Department of Peace, dedicated to wiping out the Federal Reserve and The corporate-slavery-military-industrial-pharma-complex to boot?

With probably the smartest woman to occupy the Second Lady position in history.

I don't post much, but thoughts are things, and you never know what your spark might ignite. I think our desperate times call for desperate and creative measures. How many election cycles do you think we have left?

:rant:

Anyway, carry on.

:smoke:

1. Duly noted, but...
There's a Unity '08 "party" trying to start (www.unity08.com) that wants a bipartisan campaign ticket, but something tells me that a Kucinich/Paul ticket isn't even on their radar.

Besides, I don't think Kucinich would accept nomination from anyone other than the Democrats themselves.

4. Interesting.
And thanks. I had no idea this was even around.

And I never in a million expect either one of them to get their party's nomination.

But I think Kucinich would be an awesome president, with perhaps Wes Clark as veep.

I just like Kucinich. He knows the score. He knows it's got to be about interconnectedness from here on out.

He knows we have to make war on war, and abolish it at all costs if we are ever to move forward as a species.

No other candidate can give me that.

2. I like your Dennis part better than the Paul part.
I'm against the Unity8 movement, or whatever the hell it is, because the Dem field in 08 is very strong and very deep.

Some awfully good people on our side. Not so hot at all on the red side.

3. Paul is overrated.
Too fiscally conservative.

5. Paul is still very conservative.

He would cut all social spending and oppose work safety measures.
He also was ragging on Bill Clinton. So Clinton is "worse" than Bush?

11. No intelligent person is still a Republican after the last miserable few years
of Republican rule.
