Great Dennis Kucinich meeting tonite in my town
We had a good turnout & folks had some great ideas!!
:thumbsup:
Considering renting the local movie theatre and showing DK stuff...maybe selling some veggie smoothies or something. That way we get to share DK and make some bucks for him as well!

We are now having meetings on a regular basis! :)

I am jazzed....I've never known a candidate that I am willing to put myself on the line for...but DK is the man!!

Peace
DR

1. Should I say, "The grass roots are growing," OR "the cactus roots
are growing?"

Out west here we are seeing incremental growth for DK. Little by little we're growing and developing DEEP roots that will last for YEARS in American politics. More same-O, same-O is no longer acceptable!!

2. I think it's that we get to make a difference
It's like finally being able to succeed in putting Bobby Kennedy in the Presidency. The neat part is that when Dennis gets the presidency, those of us who worked for him can all feel proud that were were partially responsible for changing the world and making it a better place for everyone. No campaigner for any other candidate can honestly say that.

3. Great idea!
I'm not sure if I want to know what a veggie smoothie tastes like, though. :wink: At the Santa Ana gathering, they had two food vendors; one was a vegetarian grill of some sort; I don't remember the name. It looked really good, and a lot of people were eating there; they were donating a percentage of the take to Dennis' campaign.

4. Maybe you mean vegan smoothies?
Made with fruit and soy milk?

They're yummy. Unfortunately, I drank so many of them (in search of phytoestrogens) that I developed a sensitivity to soy and can no longer tolerate those 16-ounce glasses of vegan smoothie.

5. Deluded
I really can't believe there are people who think Dennis Kucinich even has a shot. Please tell me you just really, really, really , really admire Dennis, not that you think Mr. Junior Boosterseat will ever sit in the Oval Office for real.

6. Wow...

Junior BoosterSeat?

How long did you work on that? Other than that, way to add so much to the discussion.

If this nation could "elect" a chimpanzee as President (with all due respect to real chimps) then we surely could elect a "Junior Booster Seat", no?

WTBS-NO, I don't believe DK has a chance in hell of winning and its the only reason I remain a Kerry supporter as opposed to DK.

7. Uuhmm...'scuse me
Edited on Fri Aug-15-03 12:26 PM by Desertrose
ScotTissue.....nice name....seems appropriate to your post somehow....
seems fitting for whichever end you need to wipe...

why would I post this if I thought he didn't have a chance....?

Am not even wondering why you felt the need to add your pointless comment to this thread...just to show what clever names you can come up with? Perhaps you are describing yourself....hard to tell people's age on this board when so many act so childish...

What Kucinich offers to the American people is so much more than politics..if you can't see it well, thats a darn shame.

Yes, Dennis DOES have a chance to sit in the Oval Office....

Peace
DR
