14. That's pretty sick.
"The idea of "different side of the same coin."

Kucinich would be just as bad for this country as Bush. His attitudes about governance are the same, you just cannot see it because he says what you want to hear. Bush wants to ignore the large portion of America that does not support his extremist agenda. Kucinich wants to ignore the large portion of America that does not support HIS extremists agenda."

No he doesn't. He wants to FIND the portion of America that DOES support his ideas, and believe it or not that's most of us. We're all just effing paranoid. I men let's be real here, we couldn't possibly find a polititcian who cares abut the little people, right? It has to be some sort of propaganda or BS just to get our votes. Only in this case it doesn't, and it isn't.

Extreme? Was Thomas Jefferson extreme? Was George Washington extreme? How about Thom Paine?

Dennis Kucinich believes in all the things those men did, and those men built a country on those beliefs. Were those men perfect somehow? No. Is Kucinich perfect? No. Were those men the best ones to lead the USA to becoming a sovreign nation? Obviously yes. Is Kucinich the best man to lead the USA out of this notion that war and violence are inevitable? Obviously yes.

You claim not to be a single voter issue, but so far I've only seen you bring up two points against Kucinich. Extremism and his change from PL to PC.

What else have you got, because those aren't going to alter my thinking. A man who puts peace above war and has the ideas to make that a common thread in our society has my vote. Counter that if you can.

>>I would vote for four more years of Bush before I would vote for Kucinich, better the devil you know.<<

Pathetic. Vote for a warmonger from hell over a peaceloving caring humanitarian. Why does that sound totally twisted to me?
