[Mass]

[Freddie Stubbs]

[bunk_suick]

5. His wife is hot

[question everything]

6. Wonderful sense of humor

as we saw yesterday on the Colbert Report

and quick on his feet:

Colbert: did you shrink this pocket Constitution yourself?

DK: No, that was George Bush

[MaggieSwanson]

7. He'll put an end to the so-called "Patriot" Act.

and restore our civil liberties.

:patriot:

[ChairmanAgnostic]

8. I like his pockets.

Seriously.

keeping the constitution in his pocket is a damned good thing. Pity too many other candidates forgot what it says.

[sailor65]

9. "I WILL GET US OUT

OF NAFTA"

Yeah, baby!

[...of J.Temperance]

10. What I agree with Dennis Kucinich about

That's the reinstating of The Fairness Doctrine, something which would require the media to give Democratic and Republican points of view equal time....as opposed to how it's been for too long, where the GOP get like an hour and then the Democratic Party get like 10 minutes....and then the discussion panel proceed to stroke and lick the GOP and proceed to bash the Democrats.

[rudy23]

11. He's the best representative of Democratic values out of all the candidates

F*** triangulation. F*** catering to the "center".

The 65%+ of this country who agree with the traditionally Democratic stances on the major issues want to see someone who is unapologetic in their progressivism.

[cali]

12. he care deeply about advancing new solutions to

problems plaguing our country.

[TheDebbieDee]

13. I saw him on Colbert last night - he's got a great sense of humor!

[BigDDem]

14. Many of his supporters provide

hilarious theories.

[Forkboy]

15. You first.

;)

[DemocratSinceBirth]

16. He Doesn't Bash The Other Candidates In The Debate

eom

[ChairmanAgnostic]

17. no, nor does he shy away from pointing out differences. that is not

bashing, just mentioning facts.

my fear is that Dennis represents many of my ideals, my thoughts, my issues. But Bush has destroyed so much, so fast, that it either is too late, or we need a revolution, not Kucinich styled evolution of our plans and ideals. If elected, he may simply inherit such intractable problems that no one person could solve them. and he would end up being blamed, as we turn further into a fascist nation.

[lpbk2713]

18. He looks harmless enough.

Umm ... that's all I can think of. :shrug:

[NewHampster]

19. Well Duh!

[soulcore]

20. He'll create a Department of Peace

And use diplomacy to, you know, be diplomatic and stuff.

He'll stop the war too, with no residual force for "anti-terrorism operations".

Imagine that.

[eridani]

21. He's right 99% of the time

Except for your occasional screwups like the Faux Noise thing and voting against SCHIP.

The big three--
1. No permanent presence in Iraq
2. Universal health CARE, not insurance, no one left out for ANY reason
3. Fair trade

Also strong on restoring civil liberties, in favor of medical marijuana, in favor of full marriage equality.

[John Q. Citizen]

27. SCHIP, He voted for it -When it included legal immigrant's children -before he voted against it-

When they took legal immigrant children out of the bill.

i like that he wasn't just going to go along because he could claim he supported CHIP as it was leaving 600,000 kids out in the cold.

He's not afraid to do what's right, even if doing what's right can be held against him politically.

[John Q. Citizen]

32. Kucinich is far and away, and for many reasons, the best candidate in the race.

Anyone who says different is probaby tripping...

[jefferson_dem]

22. He's a dedicated public servant and a man of strong principle and...

he gets to snuggle up next to this every night. --->

:evilgrin:

[rosesaylavee]

23. He has the best sense of humor and comic timing

than any of the other candidates running.

I agree more with his stance on the issues than any other candidate running.

I appreciate his impeachment bill. That takes courage to do that.

[MonkeyFunk]

24. He seems to have a great sense of humor

just watched him on Colbert. He was very funny.

[slick8790]

25. I just saw that too.

Best guest I've seen in a long while.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

26. He's the only one who talks about actually undoing Reaganism

instead of just tinkering around the edges to make a less scary sort of conservatism.

[Dragonfly]

30. Astute observation which

succinctly sums up the nub of why he really can't be portrayed by corporate media as the passsionately altrusitic advocate of a planet becoming quickly healthier across-the-board that he is.

Regards to large bloc(s) of Minnesota soul kin. I am always happier learning that others see the clarity of "big picture" goings-on thru a common and caring prism.

[Sparkly]

28. Love his healthcare proposal.

Love a lot of his ideas. I've often said the world will be a better place when someone like him can win a nomination.

(Also -- excellent deadpan comedic timing with Colbert last night!!)

[superkia]

29. He is a candiate that is actually asking for impeachment and...

speaking out about it. He has also spoke out on the privatization of Iraq's oil, two things that mean allot and the other candidates are where on this?

He gives us a voice and attacks the issues that we want attacked, very important in a candidate that wants to run for president. We don't need another president that doesn't speak out and give Americans a voice. The ones that are afraid to speak for us now when we are about to place votes, sure wont speak for us after they win.

[bvar22]

31. Dennis Kucinich is not afraid to be a "Liberal".

Dennis Kucinich is NOT afraid of losing large single source contributions (CEO).
He is free to speak for those Americans who must Work for a Living.
THIS is the voice that needs to HEARD in the USA and the World!

Dennis Kucinich is the ONLY candidate who has a Clear & Consistent position on the illegal and immoral Iraq Occupation.

Dennis Kucinich is the ONLY candidate who has presented a Clear and Consistent position on Wars of Aggression, and the need to JOIN the International Community on Land Mine Bans and the International Criminal Court.

Dennis Kucinich is the ONLY candidate who has a Clear & Consistent position opposing Media Consolidation.

Dennis Kucinich is the ONLY candidate who has a Clear & Consistent position supporting the IMPEACHMENT of the criminal Bush administration.

Dennis Kucinich is the ONLY candidate who has given Clear Voice to the ISSUES that are critical in America today, and has a consistent record on those issues.



DK has my confidence, my money, my vote, my time, and my support!


”Unlike other candidates, I am not funded by those corporate interests.
I owe them no loyalty, and they have no influence over me or my policies.” ---Dennis Kucinich

[FREEWILL56]

33. I see that DK has guts by leading an anti-war march past bush's

old place in Maine. He also showed compassion for somebody that had fallen and was suffering due to the heat in that same march by staying with him until help arrived. That's more compassion than bush has shown in his entire 2 terms.

[lostnfound]

34. He has guts, and he is NOT bought off. nt

[JNelson6563]

35. He's a man of peace

:toast:

[sufrommich]

36. I respect his health care philosophy and hope we get

there someday,although,I don't think the majority in this country are ready to go there yet.

[Catchawave]

37. One of the best speakers on the planet !

I remember his speech from the '04 convention, very passionate.

[DarkTirade]

38. He's the only one I've seen so far that I'd actually WANT to vote for.

And yes, before anyone decides to start making negative comments in here, I WILL vote for the other ones if they get the nod. A brain-damaged monkey in a neglege would be better than a republican by this point. Heck, I'd even vote for a gorilla in a banana suit if I it would keep a republican out of office...

[BornagainDUer]

39. You know why I can tell he's the one the fascisti fear the most?

Because he has been systematically marginalized by the corporate owned, Bush controlled press.
The big push for Al Gore by this same press reveals alot about they wanting him in the mix too.
