1. Why would anyone not want to?
I love Kucinich! My former Congressman.

3. I adore Kucinich, but why are these things always priced out
of the range of average citizens? Is it to keep out the rabble? Not trying to be snarky, I just don't understand. There have been times in the past when I have wanted to attend fundraiser events for candidates I've endorsed and always found them far above my reach with $50 and $100 "donations" to attend.

I hate being poor and always left out.:(

4. In Dennis' case
I suggest maybe it's because he's not a corrupt lobbyist-serving SOB like so many in Congress, and he has to fund his campaign somehow

5. I understand the funding needs Greeby. I just don't understand why
no one seems to ever have fund raisers that the common poor folks can pay say $10 or $20 and have a chance to meet with the candidates and share our concerns also. The fundraisers are obviously aimed at middle and upper-middle class citizens, not the waitresses and gas station attendants.

Where are the fundraisers where we the poor can help candidates we like raise money and actually get to meet them and air our concerns? Is it just that we will never raise enough money to really make a dent in what is needed?

I adore Dennis. I'm not slamming him at all. I'm glad to see it's not a $5000/10,000 a plate dinner.

Maybe I'm not making myself clear.:shrug:
