Reply #89: FDR to DJK?

[ChipperbackDemocrat]

At first, I thought..."This is a stretch..."

But then I got to thinking.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt spoke about the hopes of a nation. So does Dennis Kucinich.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt fought for policies that support the working people. So does Dennis Kucinich.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt was called "crazy" and was fought at every turn. So has Dennis Kucinich.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt's New Deal scared some people so much, that the cheap labor conservatives and the robber barons of his time wanted him repudiated. Dennis Kucinich fighting for a public utility scared Cleveland's banks so much that they wanted him repudiated. Yet both were proven right.

Why I want Dennis..

1. Dennis knows why we are 'at war', knew it was wrong when it wasn't cool to know it was wrong...and wants our nation to stop.
I don't agree with his proposal in full, but I agree with the basic premise. The "War On Terror" is a deliberate lie, and it time to end this conflict and more important change our way of thinking.

2. Dennis supports the only health care option that really makes sense for working people.
I just did my benefit selection. Higher co-pays, fewer options, more "managed" care. I don't know about you, but I've had enough. Human life is priceless, so why should Glaxo and Cigna get to put a price on it?

3. Dennis defended the Constitution and put his vote where is mouth is.
Two words. PATRIOT ACT. Dennis voted NO.

4. Dennis believes in true American strength.
A President who is acting like Deion Sanders as he's high-stepping to the end zone...WHAT A CHANGE.
A President who says its time for us to talk to the world instead of trying to dictate to it.


To thoes who say, Dennis is "kooky"
Ask yourself..

1. "BRING 'EM ON" vs. "Department of Peace"
2. A drug bill for seniors written by drug companies vs. universal single payer health car
3. Foreign policy and energy policy written by oilmen with a vested interest. vs. Foreign policy and energy policy written for the 21st century.
4. Patriot Act vs. Respect for the Constitution.
5. Tax cuts for the wealthy during a time of war. A war funded by the Chinese. vs. Ending that war and using the funding to rebuild our country
6. "We want the McKinley Era, without the protectionism" vs. "Respect for workers rights, human right and environmental standards."

Now really ask yourself...What sounds "kooky" to you.


America has the chance to be great again. DON'T LET THE CHEAP LABOR CONSERVATIVES WRECK IT SOME MORE!
