112. Again, I don't disagree with you; it is a shame that we have to settle
Edited on Fri Jan-11-08 10:03 AM by Atman
Clinton had charisma in spades, he was tall and handsome (or so some say), he was a great speaker, he was excellent at articulating his ideas. DK has the ideas, but nothing else. And you're absolutely correct, we need strong alpha-male (or female) types to square off against other world leaders. Get it? I'm not calling you "too stupid," I'm saying that if you simply read his position paper without having any idea which candidate wrote it, you would most likely choose DK. Seriously...have you read Obama's or Clinton's? Compare 'em to DK's. DK espouses virtually everything DUers cry out for, while the others all have some serious problems, imho. For instance, Hillary Clinton's war stance, Obama's view of coal as a "green fuel," etc. I'm not campaigning for DK, and I know he has no chance in hell of EVER getting the Dem nomination.

But the OP asked "why don't more people support Kucinich." Do you REALLY believe that more people in America don't support him because you find his supporters on DU insulting? Really? I was just trying to answer the question honestly.
