Rock the Vote is turning me into a kucinich supporter
before tonight i really havent made a judgement on which canadate i had supported, but tonight kucinich is sounding very electable... at least to me... sharpton, clark, and others are sounding impressive as well... actuially gives me some hope that someday we might have a president who acts in the best interest of the nation.

2. If Kucinich puts himself into a winnable position before the primaries
hit California, I will vote for him. I'm sick of being sick of politics. It's time for some real change. Radical right-wing, religious neoconservatism = what sickened me, so I'm ready to try some serious left-wing. Tax the hell out of the ultra-rich and cry me a river. I don't give a shit about them. Anyone who makes more than 10 million a year should give a sizable chunk to THE PEOPLE.

I just got a notice that my rent is going up and I can't make ends meet now. I'm completely disabled and the government expects me to live on $750 a month. Rent is now $450. Completely undoable.

Meanwhile, the richest men in America decide what color leer jet to buy this month for their teenage daughter.

Fuck that.

5. yes but then
Sharpton said "Mrs. Kerry"

"Well my choice was going to be Ms. Mosely-Braun, but now it's you so I can keep an eye on my wife!"

8. It's no secret that I like Kerry.
I like Kucinich a lot, and have a lot of respect for him. But I think Kerry is my choice. Yes you heard it here first folks. LPFF supports the Skull and Crossbones candidate.

Well congrads on finding a candiate. lol skull and crossbones heh. Congrads. I just hardly ever talk to you about the candiates you know. I am starting to like Kerry myself more and more. Hes been my second for awhile and he was good from what I saw tonight. Glad we like and respect each other candiates.

7. a kick for DK
The election is one year away. One.

As the great sage Danny Joe Brown once said, "when we gamble with our time, we choose our destiny."


No more gambling. Let's choose a great new destiny for America with DK.

9. DK is the one
the best ideas

the best plan

the most conviction (along with Sharpton)

Dennis Kucinich represents a better America in the future.

12. Dean - Kucinich would be my ultimate ticket
All of my views in one ticket and IN THE WHITE HOUSE! Clark has become a big favorite in the Young Dems of UC Irvine, but I'm still loyal to Dean.

I doubt if it could happen, but it would be great, wouldn't it?

13. Yeah, but politics has to be so political. :(
Ya gotta balance the ticket...blah...blah...blah. So with a Kucinich nod, you'd need a moderate. It would be nice if the moderate would choose Kucinich as the running mate, but I wonder if that's possible, too. The dialogue / debate has all moved rightward.
