Kucinich: Seven Straight Nights for Equal Rights
As we all know, Dennis Kucinich is the strongest supporter of GLBT rights, along with Mike Gravel, of the candidates running for President. In case you have any doubts, please view the HRC/LOGO Rewind here

Between October 7 and October 13, 2007, straight people across the nation will "come out" as supporters of equal rights for the gay and lesbian community in America.
Dennis and Elizabeth on Seven Straight Nights for Equal Rights!


This is the announcement by Dennis and Elizabeth of their support for this national movement.

This movement, dubbed Seven Straight Nights for Equal Rights, was initiated by Soulforce and Atticus Circle, two Texas-based organizations with members across the nation. With their leadership, straight community leaders are organizing vigils in 30 or more communities around the country.


This is a movement that seeks to show the US that the GLBT community deserves the same rights as all Americans.

We urge you to join this movement. Please go to
http://www.sevenstraightnights.org/ and find a vigil near you. Plan to attend, and contact the organizers to find out how you can help.


From the Seven Straight Nights web page:

These courageous community leaders are showing their elected officials that equality is not a gay issue, not an urban elite issue, not an east coast or a west coast issue -- it's an American issue, and Seven Straight Nights is making Americans' support for lesbian and gay equality visible as never before. Seven Straight Nights Homepage


If you're straight, and even if you're not (!), you can find the local vigil where you can support this movement.

So please support these important vigils. Wear your T-shirts, bring your signs, and let the nation know that not only is the Kucinich campaign the campaign of civil and human rights, but the Kucinich campaign team is far ahead when it comes to standing strong with the LGBTQ community.

In peace, and justice,

Dennis and Elizabeth


As always,

Go Dennis! :woohoo:

2. I just signed on
to be a Kucinich supporter today. I heard him interviewed on Air America and that cinched it for me. He is one of a kind, a peace candidate.

And he gets the other stuff right too!
