2. An "incident of national significance"
Don't worry, that wording is so comprehensive that we're virtually assured such a thing will never happen!!!

Thank you, Rep Kucinich, for reading the whole damn bill and not relying on staffer's cliff notes.

DJK has America's back, can't we watch his?

4. AGAIN!
Clarity from Dennis not found in any other politician.
He's way ahead of even the false hero Ron Paul is and
unlike Paul, he's not a corporate-liberal who will be
handing total freedom to corporations to pollute and
poison and pillage the suffering middle class under
a Libertarian rule (Libertarians are by far easily
the worst corporate liberals, even beyond those,
they supposedly oppose, who are neo-cons). It's
amazing so many who support Paul without this
realization. Dennis has equal if not more of
a strong voice against those who want to go
destroying the Constitution. Without that
right-wing insanity from the Ron Paul's.

10. Thank Gawd Dennis Kucinich has balls...
Edited on Sat Nov-10-07 12:32 PM by sueh
IMO it is a gawd dam shame that Congress has allowed itself to become an accomplice to passing legislation that give Bush and Cheney a legal way to commit otherwise illegal acts.

12. I can see no other candidate as deserving to be the Dem nominee
I just can't see any other.

I don't want to wait "until it's all gone" to have others chime in with agreement. We don't have that long, citizens.

13. He is so unfortunately right.
The idiots that are even questionable as to how they got their positions of power ie election and have committed so many violations of the constitution and our laws not to mention laws against humanity along with international laws is a threat to everybody and not just those in this country. Under the guise of good vs evil they pretend to be on good noble quests, but they are a far greater evil that their objective evils could ever be and must be stopped.

16. If any of the other candidates were the only Dem left
I would still write in Kucinich, as a matter of conscience. I do not see any credible criticism of him except for MSM-soundbite sounding 'he's not electable' or 'He is a weak executive' knee jerk responses. People are free not to personally like a candidate, but we are hiring someone to do a job.
He is the only one that seems willing to stand up to the military industrial complex, which has undoubtedly overextended itself (understatement).
I am interested to hear actual reasons why DK is unelectable, but have heard none.
The MSM needs to learn that it does not have sole control over American people now. We can find out the truth much faster, and their old dinosaur tricks don't work anymore.

17. Dennis gets my vote - none of the other candidates have the courage

Or, true patriotism to fight these criminals...

I am disgusted by the other candidates. The silence is deafening. The big game of pretend.

26. Maybe we should compromise on the end of our democracy
It's the pragmatic thing to do.

It's the centrist thing to do.
