1. Hopefully Kucinich will run for Governor or Senator
His political career is far from over. BTW I am in favor of him staying in as long as he wishes. I dont share your opinion about Kerry but I do think Kucinich would make the best president of the 10 candiates we have had, and I like him the most personally and on the issues. I would like to apologize for some people telling Kucinich to withdraw and ridiculing DK and his supporters who I feel went through the toughest times, believe me I was there. I've met the man, he is a short man but he stands tall in ways few can. I want him if hes not the nominee to be a house officer like whip, or who knows maybe even majority leader or speaker, or maybe he could run for senator or governor of Ohio. I want him to be remembered. He's the first candiate I really got interested in. History shouldnt forget this noble man of convictions. Great man, its easy to see why he is admired.

4. Dennis
Edited on Thu Mar-04-04 02:56 AM by neoteric lefty
would be a great Senator. He can bring a real progressive voice to the "good ol' boys" club in the US Senate. He is definately a man of principle and his good fortune will come. He is on the way up, I think.

5. I think so too
Its long overdue honest. He would be senator or who knows maybe even a former president already if his political career hadnt been ruined by muni light, it wasnt totally ruined but it set him back in the 80's. He's going places.

2. No, of course we won't have that, because the Democratic Party won't
allow it. If such a figure comes along, all the good little Democrats will say, "He's unelectable." or "I believe in incremental change." or "He's a commie." Or "He's not practical enough. Too much of an idealist."

Then, all the good little Democrats will run to conform to whatever the media & Wall St & the Dem Establishment advises them to do. Then we wind up with a Kerry again. It's a sure thing. :cry:

3. Never had one yet, never will have one.
Whether becoming a national leader makes for flawed integrity or having flawed integrity is necessary to become a national leader, that's all we've had so far.

6. don't be dissapointed....
dennis kucinich is going to change things more than anyone would have imagined...if only for the fact that when all is said and done...the candidate everyone says all their heart and mind needed...was there the entire time...and he was unwavering...ONE delegate at the convention for my man Dennis is a victory for voters who hope to find what will ease your dissapointment coporate and he'll end up with more than that by far...he's still in it...just like he said, just like we said...skinner asked me to avoid nicknames and i did...but i'm proud to be a 'kucinich kid'...

the man was, is and shall remain the man we should have elected...and soon many here will concur wholeheartedly

dare to dream
one love

7. spike and remember he could be in the contention for governor
Ohio is a big state. Maybe he will build up a nice repuation as governor of Ohio, and then run again and this time win :). We are lucky to have him.
