Kucinich will still get our votes in February. Why?...
One of the biggest issues for me is accountability.

We watched while this administration, with the approval of some in our party, invaded another nation under Bush's new doctrine of preemptive war.

We should remember the millions of lives ruined in Iraq and how this has changed the perceptions of America in Iraq and other countries.

For me this is bigger than the next election.


And again on this issue there is silence...

"‘History Will Not Forgive Those Who Play Recklessly With Our Wealth’- Oil Union Leader’s Speech on Oil Law

2—If those calling for production-sharing agreements insist on acting against the will of Iraqis, we say to them that history will not forgive those who play recklessly with the wealth and destiny of a people and that the curse of heaven and the fury of Iraqis will not leave them..."


Dennis was out front on these issues and others could have easily followed his lead if they thought it was the right thing to do, instead they remained silent.


Both of these issues will most likely come back to haunt us and our children in the long run, at least I can say I voted for the person who took action and showed courage.

6. Great! I might have to write him, but it will send a small message
that I do not approve of the current actions/inactions and candidates of my party.
