10. Strong bunch of new endorsements this week!
A campaign email today:

Dennis Kucinich's presidential campaign has just received endorsements from a number of prominent Americans, including actor and activist Danny Glover, author Howard Zinn, Democratic leader and former Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate and former head of the NFL players' union Ed Garvey, Founder of the School of the America's Watch Father Roy Bourgeois, Co-Founder of Global Exchange Kevin Danaher, the American Vegetarians, and Comedian Professor Irwin Corey.

The Kucinich campaign has also just been endorsed in the first primary state,New Hampshire, by the New Hampshire Green Party, and has also received the endorsement of the Kent County, Mich., Greens.

Danny Glover said: "I have watched Dennis Kucinich not only in the glory of a political campaign, but I have sat and dialogued with him and watched him learn from others, and of all the candidates he stands the closest to my conscience, and I must go with my conscience."

Howard Zinn, author of "A People's History of the United States," said: "I am happy to endorse Dennis Kucinich because of all the candidates for the Democratic nomination, he is the only one with a bold, clear, principled position against the war in Iraq, against U.S. militarism, in favor of the single payer health system, in favor of using the great wealth of our country to solve the needs of the American people."
