I'm so excited! Dennis is coming to my town!
Edited on Wed Mar-07-07 12:00 AM by lumberjack_jeff
To my knowledge, in my local 2004 caucus, I was the only Kucinich vote.

Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich will speak at the Bishop Center at Grays Harbor College on March 30.

Kucinich is a six-term congressman from Ohio. His lecture was arranged by the Grays Harbor Institute, a non-profit group founded a year-and-a-half ago to bring speakers who promote ideas of social, economic and racial justice to the Harbor.

Admission to the lecture will be free, and a time has yet to be set.

...

Kucinich was elected mayor of Cleveland at the age of 31, and refused to sell the city’s publicly-owned power distribution system to a private company. He failed to win re-election as a result of his actions, but Casey said “several years later, people began to appreciate that they still owned their electric system and remembered his role in it.”

“I’m excited and I think the Harbor should be excited,” Casey said. “He’s a Grays Harbor kind of guy. If people knew Dennis, they’d vote for Dennis.”

Kucinich comes to Aberdeen

1. I would vote for Kucinich in a heart beat!!!
Hands down Kucinich is the best candidate out there for progressive policies; a no nonsense from the beginning hard stand on Iraq.

Dump NAFTA; true universal health care; a workers program that will put people back to work
rebuilding our infrastructure.

I will vote for him in the primaries with no reservation what so ever. I wish I could persuade Democrats that he may not be so highly polished as the posturing professionals we like to refer to as Reps and Sen. from our own party but he is a man I have no doubt would work tirelessly for the people who put him in office.
