As I would be eager to see how Mr. Perfect would solve our nation's problems. He has great ideas, I just worry that he wouldn't be able to get any of his ideas passed (unless he used executive orders).

1. Unlike Obama, Kucinich would undoubtedly take advantage of the Presidents bully pulpit
to inform the public, and secure their backing. Obama can't do that because his politics runs contrary to that which he campaigned and was elected on.

2. I don't like Obama's idea of an individual mandate for private insurance..
In fact as someone who feels that a loved one of theirs was killed by an insurance company withholding treatment I fucking loathe the idea.

8. I'd rather go with someone who stands a good chance at getting elected
I real can't see DK fitting that particular mold.
