Calling all Kucinich supporters
Kucinich activists/volunteers are still working together to elect a Congress that will support his platform and legislation in Congress.

We need a Congress that will

a) cut the funding to Iraq and the phony war on terror

b) sign on to HR676 Universal HealthCARE for All

c) Hand Counted Paper Ballots NOW!

d) Impeach Bush/Cheney OR Sign on to the ICC and send them to the Hague as the war criminals they are!

e) End the drug war and release the innocent Americans from prison. End the Prison Industrial Complex.

f) Repeal the Patriot Act


If we all work together, we can elect a Congress that will uphold our Constitution and respect Kucinich's leadership qualities enough to make him Speaker of the House.

Some may say I am a dreamer, but I am not the only one...

1. He was the only candidate for REAL change, IMO
Its funny how everyone dismissed him as "the candidate that can't win" well before the primaries.
Oh well, You get what you vote for.

2. He's the only one with real crediblity
and had the real intelligence to see what Bush was up to all along.

5. 6 points all Democratic voters support
But neither of our candidates support. They both oppose removing profit from human health care, because health does not count unless someone gets to buy a BMW, and without the Insruance Companies, hospital administration might not get their salaries doubled like Michelle did, from 120K to over 300,000. In one day.
The Patriot Act? They voted to extend and preserve it. The war? They both funded every time they were asked.
They don't talk about ending the drug war, nor prosecuting Bushco, so count on more people going to prison for years for smoking a joint, while Abu Gitmo torture crowd goes free to spend the lucre.

Without Dennis or at least John in the race, I realize most Democrats are just Republicans with a different lapel pin.

6. exactly
This is why it is so important to elect a good Congress. They are (supposed to be) a coequal branch.

14. A concise and accurate diagnosis
of the disease that is destroying us.

I'm sorry to say that I agree with you.

At least as far as the presidential race goes.

How about the group we'll be choosing to go against Smith in November? I'm leaning Novick, but need to spend more time getting to know them. I doubt there will be many trips to the "right" side of the Cascades.

There's Golub in CA, challenging Pelosi. I hope she wins.
