"Like most environmental problems, the effects of global warming will be disproportionately felt by those least responsible for the problem: the poor and future generations. We have an obligation to take the lead, consistent with our disproportionate contribution. With only 5% of the world's population we produce 20% of the emissions. "We can increase CAFE standards from 24 miles per gallon to 40 miles per gallon for starters. We can derive our ethanol from renewable resources, not those that exacerbate world hunger by driving up food prices and exact environmental damage of their own. We can reduce our dependence on hydrocarbon fuels, unsafe nuclear power, and our dependence on foreign energy sources. The best path forward is a combination of multiple renewable energy technologies that when combined holistically can achieve these goals."

"The science is clear. This is not a problem of the future. It is happening now. The United Nations has declared that at least 5 million cases of illness and more than 150,000 deaths every year are attributed to global warming. The 2003 European heat wave killed over 20,000 people. The 10 hottest years on record have occurred in the last 15 years. Two consecutive record-breaking hurricane seasons. The problem will not fix itself… Just how bad does it have to get?" Kucinich statement on the House floor during debate on H. R. 5386, Department of the Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2007.

It looks like Obama and Clinton beat him on most issues, and Richardson kicks ass.

10. Sorry to agree with you,

at least regarding Richardson being far ahead of the field. Obama and Clinton, it seems, are not much different from Kucinich. Of course, the Cons are all saying either nothing or worse.
