33. Okay great, so outside of one point your entire problem with Kucinich is his image.
And you are trying to tell me you haven't been brainwashed by the corporate media?

Who the fuck cares about image? Are you that shallow?

Give me a candidate that supports abortion.

Give me a candidate that supports civil rights for everyone, no matter what their sexual orientation might be. "Civil unions" don't cut it.

Give me a candidate that has been right on the Iraq war before we went in.

Give me a candidate that has been right on the Iraq war since we went in by refusing to vote to fund it.

Give me a candidate that actually has a plan ready to give all americans free health care.

Give me a candidate that isn't in the pockets of the oil lobby, a candidate that will not doom the Iraqi population to eternal poverty by giving their oil to his/her big oil friends.

Finally give me a candidate that won't bullshit me just to get me to vote for them.

Name me one cadidate running right now outside of Kucinich that falls in to all of those categories. Your perception of his image doesn't mean a damn thing when you elect another stooge that will refuse to stand up to the system. Your idea that a guy who has been right on this war from the beginning has less chance to win than a guy that says stay the course in the general election is fantasy perpeturated to you by the MSM. The only way we will lose in 08 is if we have republican-lite go up against republican. And virtually all the candidates outside of Kucinich are the DLC version of republican-lite. So yes, you have been brainwashed.
