28. The difference between Dean and Kucinich, John,
is the fact that Dean dropped out while Kucinich, to the best of my knowledge, is still running. That's the reason he has still been accepting contributions. A friend of mine also contributed again, not long ago, after receiving a call from the Kucinich campaign. It may be a lost cause, but he felt it was important to keep the Kucinich campaign going, so he could have some influence on the platform.:-)

I also wish that more people who agreed with Kucinich had come out more in support of him. As I have often said, where is he? Why aren't we hearing about him, as we are the others? It's like he is the invisible man. We still hear about Dean and Gephardt and Sharpton and Clark, even though they all have officially dropped out. Kucinich, who still has a campaign, is totally overlooked by the media.:shrug:

Jon Stewart, God bless him, pointed this out. He talked about the big flap over Kerry being allowed to take communion on Easter, even though he is pro-choice. Stewart then asked why there was nothing in the news about Kucinich, who is also Catholic and also pro-choice. No one cared that Kucinich was also allowed to take communion. He then showed a photo, supposedly of Kucinich (though it was obviously Kucinich's face on somebody else's body), holding a protest sign proclaiming "get your rosaries off my ovaries," LOL! He said that even this failed to get anyone's attention!:D
