4. Yep, he definitely has the fire and the message.
I think the US Public is closer to Dennis than any of the other candidates. Notice how he doesn't get all tongue-tied when the fascists start their BS about supporting the troops, "leaving the military without the necessary equipment" etc.

He could win the dem nomination!

3. Sorry Dennis...but you are delusional.
It's one thing to not really do any effort to try to pass a bill that would have enough votes to pass (that what this place called Congress does) to end the war, but to distort the efforts that went into passing legislation that puts timelines and benchmarks to end the war is simply opportunistic charlatanism.

What bill did you try to pass to end the war, Dennis? Any bill that would have enough votes to pass?

Let's leave the congressional legislation to end the war to the adults and let unelectable, vainglorious opportunists like Kucinich take people's money toward his vain campaign.

8. I'm not buying the negativism Kucinich is selling
I really have a feeling he doesn't care as much for the troops as he does for the money coffers that he may get by obfuscating the truth about how to REALLY end this pathetic war.

Bumpersticker politics in this horrible time is childish and woefully doomed to failure.

10. If that is how you feel you really do not have any idea
about where Dennis is coming from. He is the last person that wuld ever practice "bumpersticker politics".

11. And who the f$%k is a KERRY supporter to call OTHER candidates "unelectable"?
Zulchzulu was just looking for an excuse to bash Dennis.

7. Yesterday I met with others and PDA members with Kucinich
I gave him an IMPEACH HIM button. He talked about peace and anger and how we had to go above anger to work for peace. But this message seems a little different. Maybe anger is "Back on the Table". :shrug:

9. He's Right About The Need For A Grassroots Effort
DK is on point here. He's not the only candidate saying that the movement must come from "the streets" - Senator Obama's making the same statement.
