A constituent thinks Kucinich does not represent Cleveland.
So some jerko mayor of Parma Might run in a primary against Dennis Kucinich. Saying Kucinich ignores Clevlenad. Few love Cleveland with the passion of Kucinich. Link below tells of Kucinich's history to Cleveland as mayor , etc. . And his role as one who saved Clevelanders from being gouged by electric utilities. I hope Clevelanders' are not swayed by some ambitious upstart.
Kucinich's battle for the Democratic nomination is about the causes he exposes, not himself.

1. Dean DePiero is hardly an upstart.
He's been a rising star in the Ohio D. Party for a while now. It's not my district, so I don't have a horse in that race.

2. Competition is always healthy
we should dispair when a Congressional member doesn't have a challenge. I'm sure Kucinich can handle it.

4.  he can question his votes
but to say he is ignoring Cleveland is what is upsetting. Yes. We'll Just double up our contributions and give to both his presidential and congressional campaigns. Urban issues have a way of being ignored, they need be heard nationally. The way to do that is speak to urban issues on the road. Being a big city mayor , refusing to bend to speculators trying to steal Cleveland Power. One can be outraged to say he ignores Cleveland.
