1. She makes sense, but I think the real answer she wanted to say is...
The American people are not ready for it. Myself, I would love to see it happen.

6. The democratic and republican party are in collusion
together. Neither wants to reform the way the political system works, because there are too many people making too much money.

7. Gobbledygook.
There is no way to protect the sacred interests of the insurance industry with the Kucinich Amendment in there, is what she means.

9. I wonder if Cindy Sheehan will try to run for that seat.
I know that she said that she would. It would be quite refreshing!

11. Nancy Pelosi has too much money, and power in SF.
Sheehan would never get the media attention.

12. I have a question.
Dennis Kucinich stands for what most of us in the progressive camp stand for. He is not just talk, he is action. He always has been. So why the hell have we never nominated him for the Presidency? I voted for Mr. Kucinich in the previous primary. I did not get the chance to vote for him this time around. Why is he considered unelectable? Because he's short and not terribly telegenic? Are we as a society so short-sighted that we let lookism determine who leads us? This man stands by his principles. I don't think you can say that about too many of our elected officials. I wish the guy was MY state representative.

15. he's too short to be electable
he sees UFOs, you'll hear those things here.. and everywhere

but the "unelectable" meme comes from the DLC and the corp. media.
