11. Gore....Kucinich....Edwards for me |
|
Gore if he announces...my loyalty to him is strong.
Edwards if he is within striking distance from the two DLC-groomed front-runners (sorry, Obama may not be DLC, but he still was loosely associated with them in his rise to fame).
Kucinich if none of the two aforementioned conditions are met.

32. Edwards lost my vote with his "values voter" pandering re: Gay Marriage a couple weeks ago. |
|
Right now, I'm probably voting Kucinich in the primaries. But if Edwards is within striking distance here, I may -may- change my mind.
But don't hold your breath.

18. I think you are right and if more people would actually listen to him they would see it too. |

Edited on Wed Sep-12-07 05:09 PM by ThomWV
But all you get is knee-jerk reactions from people who know little to nothing about him.

with corporations owning all the major media outlets, this is exactly why he won't win I'm afraid.

10. At a time where our politics fail us and our constitution is under attack |
|
Kucinich gives me hope. He is the candidate that is stepping out on a ledge and speaking out for the American peoples rights, he is attacking the corrupt aspect of the government and saying all the things we would say if we could. If another candidate will stand up to the broken political system like he is, then maybe I will change my vote. Until then I see no issue more important than our rights and the constitution and so far, he is the one screaming and fighting the system on behalf of the people, not the corporations. There really isn't much coverage at all on him positive or negative, so you have to make the effort to educate yourselves on Kucinich but its well worth your time. Also ask yourself why he doesn't get that coverage, good or bad? Why is he being hidden?
I see more coverage of Dodd and Richardson than I do on Kucinich, so its not because he doesn't get support because those guys aren't doing so well in the polls with coverage.
Do you think our media is agenda driven? Do you think they support the corporations? Why do they hide Kucinich while giving others coverage? Please take the time to ask yourselves these questions.
Before settling on a candidate and closing your eyes until the primaries, lets open our eyes to every candidate available to us. Lets make a vote to change America to the country that takes care of its people, not just the wealthy people and their corporations!
Give hope a chance!

big business, the insurance companies, big pharma, corruption on al levels.
Kucinich sounded great and I believe him. It all seems common sense to me.

16. The media ignores him for a reason and Americans follow the media? |
|
I don't understand it? My first choice was Obama until I did more research on all the candidates and found Kucinich. If I would have just stuck by Obama like he were my favorite sports team and not tried to educate myself on all the candidates, I would never have found the hidden candidate Kucinich, a candidate that is speaking out for our rights and trying to fight the system at a crucial time in history. I think it proves he is presidential while those who don't stand up for our rights are cowards playing the political game just to get elected. I know its a great paying job with great advertising contracts but when running for office, the people should be number one!
Vote for your rights because without them we have nothing!

25. We dare to hope.....but after listening to him on Schultz...I think he and Gore would |
|
be a Dream Team of Forward Thinkers....Inspiring. And, for sure after the Bush legacy...there's much need for a VISION... (Remember Poppy was accused of not having what he called "tha Vision Thing." Well his Evil Spawn from Satan didn't have "tha Vision Thing" either...but he managed to WRECK AMERICA and the ME in just a couple of years PLUS allowed TWIN TOWERS ATTACK TO OCCUR!
You just can't get WORSE than the incompetent Bushes to PROVE that AMERICA IS READY FOR VISION!
GORE/KUCINICH....OH YEAH!!!!

27. YES! Forward thinking is just what we need. |

I remember when George W. got "selected" by the Supreme Court thinking... there's no way he could be THIS bad. Then after 9/11, that quickly changed my opinion! We need Gore more than ever, and Kucinich would be the perfect running mate.

39. I was thinking about that today myself. |

I heard Dennis on Eddie's show, and really liked what he had to say, but I admit, my first choice (even though he's not yet running and may not) is Gore.
But the two of them together -- wow!

Only got to hear parts of it, but he was great. I've been leaning strongly towards Edwards, but I don't know ...DK was pretty damn impressive. I can enthusiastically support either of them and I'm relatively ok with all of em but Hillary, and I'll still vote for her if it comes to that. We just cant allow a repub to be president again...But Kucinich and Edwards are saying the things I want to hear from the candidates; and yes, talk is cheap, but beats the Hell out of not even saying those things...Oops, rambling again...

|
he is humble and trustworthy, something we need more than ever right now, I like Edwards too, but something about Dennis I like, he does not play, and he is corporations worst nightmare, and those corporations need a wake up call. Fuck the media, they are giving Dennis no play they keep on dictating to the American people who they should vote for. It is time for us to stand up for someone who stands up for us.
