It seems like there are a lot of people in the media who want to pick on Dennis Kucinich [“The $6 Million Chihuahua,” February 7]. But the facts remain: He was right about the Iraq War and voted accordingly when it was not popular. He’s an intelligent, equality minded peace advocate with a progressive vision for a better America. And unlike many other candidates, he clearly lays out his plans. Healthcare, peace, jobs, and ending discrimination…he’s the right choice.
Just because a candidate doesn’t win an election doesn’t mean his voice is not important in the political process and to a world that needs to hear from all sides of the democratic spectrum. I’m one of many, proud to support Dennis Kucinich for President.

Yes, by all means you are right. Little Dennis has laid out a clear plan for the government to fix all of the problems in the world. He will make employers provide Health Care, he will provide jobs for everybody, he will end discrimination against all people. (including little people) Last but not least he will team up with France and negotiate peace with the little guy in Iran, the even smaller guy in S. Korea, all of the people of war torn countries in Africa, Osama Bin Ladin, Hugo Chavaz and every other bad guy in the world. He knows that if you give them millions of US dollars and just talk nicely to them, they will be nice in return.
The voters in Cleveland know that if they can keep him in D.C. he won’t run for mayor at home again. By the way, he’s also making a good living “not” being elected.
