Please petition Dave Letterman to invite Dennis Kucinich on his show.

The mainstream media continues its exclusion of Dennis Kucinich, in my opinion, the most principled candidate running for the presidency. Whether you support DK or not, this treatment is just plain wrong. We cannot allow the media to choose our next president for us by marginalizing and even poking fun at decent candidates by creating preconceived notions of incompetence or foolhardiness.

Apparently David Letterman harbors some preconceived notions of his own. While interviewing Senator Obama, Dave trivialized Dennis. Senator Obama retorted with a very genuine, positive reply about Dennis to Dave. It appears Dave has never heard Dennis speak and I wonder on what grounds Dave bases his opinion about him. I’m sure if Dave gave Dennis the opportunity, Dave would be very impressed by Dennis’ well thought out and comprehensive platform.

Let’s put some pressure on Letterman to do the right thing - please add your name to http://www.petitiononline.com/mod_perl/signed.cgi?djk08&1">this petition asking Letterman to invite Dennis on his show.

I hope non-Dennis fans back this too. If your candidate's better, this can't harm them.

5. Dave is slacker, but this is a worthy cause so I am #162
Dennis deserves as much publicity as he can get.
