5. Watching the rerun now,
just home from meeting DK in Santa Ana.

Watch this, folks! It will be archived for awhile; you can download it and watch it on your computer.

For every person that hasn't made up their mind...for every person that says, "I really like what he stands for, but...."

I challenge you to watch. Listen. Get to know him. You won't regret it.

And...on my personal issue.....public education....he just went public opposing "high-stakes" testing!!!!!

What he said was something like:

"We withhold funding from schools when little kids can't pass tests, but we keep funding military contracts whose products don't pass the tests." Not word for word; not even accurate, but the meaning is the same.

7. By the way I found this beautiful
has me asking? Why arent there more people like Dennis and Tom Harkin? Also to many the department of peace is regarded as a joke but there is a man who most Americans admire and he was the father of his country, George Washington had such an idea, would you mock George Washington for desiring peace? Kucinich has a brilliant idea and he has many more, universal health and universal pre school and college education, tell me you dont like the sound of that, and Dennis like me loves to look to past heroes like FDR. These people in Iowa liked him, these arent your typical liberals, they are all kinds of people, and I like Dennis's idea of bringing back voters we have lost over the years. Please give Dennis a chance, beautiful things can blossom.

8. JohnKleeb, if you get a chance to meet him,
don't pass it up. I honestly don't see how anyone who actually spent time listening to him, and got the chance to talk to him, could choose anyone else.

You are correct. We could use many, many more people in the world like DK.

9. I plan to volunteer
I will choose him, hes number 1. DK really deserves credit, he's done his work behind the scenes so to speak, but yet we have seen the results, hes the reason why 112 democrats voted against the war resolution, and also he nearly got Gore Ohio. He was going to be in Baltimore and I went he wasnt there but for good reason. I got my dad supporting him too. I got a button and its on my school backpack. I also plan to volunteer, I did all ready but they have mailed me my stuff so I will call them on the phone. I also think Dennis is pretty witty too.

10. I taped it...
BTW...there are a lot of tapes of Dennis' various speeches available from www.wewantkucinich.com
...other sites too...don't have the links to those right off the top o' me head tho....

It was really great listening to him for an hour & a half...

did you notice the upward spiral thing he did at the very end with his hands ? ...quite powerful!!!

Peace & Dennis :)

DR
