" I'm trying to get you to understand that the way money rules elections, the voice of a candidate who doesn't get big donations at the very beginning has almost no chance of getting traction and therefore having the money to hire a big fundraising organization, run commercials, go on hundreds of campaign junkets, etc. In other words, being able to take the actions necessary to getting his/her message heard to be ABLE to rise in the polls. Is that really difficult for you to see? And do you honestly think the majority of Americans even know who Kucinich is (with his almost complete lack of media coverage outside the little-watched debates) enough to know he's even FOR impeachment? I think you have a really skewed idea of the political knowledge of the average American."

Thats right, money does rule elections, and in the beginning of these races it was the people who sent in money. The media then covers the candidates with the most money. The system is front loaded. But if the candidate has a message that is building support then money has NOTHING to do with it. Hucky didn't have any money, the media was ignoring him...look how far we have come. Kucinich doesn't need money if his message is so special...so stop complaining about money.



"So this whole negative swipe you initiated at Kucinich was only because you believe the American people aren't ready for him? OMG. That's so weird. Especially since you're posting negative comments about him on other threads too. So if the American public is too "scared" for "big change" that you say Kucinich represents, then there's no need for you to waste one more minute talking about him, is there? By the way, who's your "small change" candidate? I think you should write to your favored candidate's campaign HQ and suggest that as a slogan. "The Candidate for Small Change."

Thanks for expressing your support for campaign finance reform, but I also requested that you state WHY you were in favor. Oh, well. I can see you don't see the connection to my previous questions at all."

Yes, the people are not ready for him, thats why his numbers are low, make sense ? ...he is far to left for America right now, please don't tell me you can't see this. My big problem with Dennis is that he let his ego get in the way. He knows he can't win ..But he is still hasn't dropped out. Lets talk about Joe Biden for a second, we know Joe, he fucking loves to talk his ass off, he will talk to the wall for 2 days just to hear himself speak, he loves to have an audience ...we know this, I like Joe, but...We both know where this is going. Biden and Richardson both want their message heard yet they faced reality and dropped out and let the country focus on the candidates that can actually win. Did their supporters on DU start crying about how their message won't be heard any longer ? ..of course not, they moved on. Dennis needs to move on.
