Our Only chance to Elect an Effective Progressive

[tekisui]

By next Summer, the Democratic Party will have its Presidential Nominee. At that point all Democrats will line up and put our support towards that individual, whomever it may be. If we want a Progressive in the White House, we have to make it happen, now.

Who is capable of not only beating the washed-up degenerates from the reich wing, but also of being an effective leader?

Who is capable of working with the House and Senate to, first clean up a lot of messes, and second lead a progressive agenda?

Who will end the Illegal Occupation of Iraq?

Who will stand up and roll back the civil rights abuses by the current Criminal Administration?

Who will put an end to illegal surveillance, secret prison renditioning and torture?

Who will close Guantanamo Bay?

Who will hold the current War Criminals to account?

Who will make Universal Healthcare a reality?

Who will honor our Veterans with proper benefits?

Who will recognize undocumented workers and work to end the sources of illegal immigration?

Who will invest in Our Country, Our Youth and Our People?

Now is the time to elect a true Progressive that will stand for the People, with the People. The Country is ready for change, and ready to put their faith in the Democratic Party. It is up to the Democratic Party to put up a nominee who stands for Truth, Justice and Equality; one who is confident and effective.

The Country is ready, are we?

2. Oh....oh....let me guess!!!

Kucinich?

Who will never be president.

3. I think Kucinich is great.

I am proud that he stands on the stage as a candidate. But, I know he won't win in the primary, and won't win in the general(at least not this decade).

Who do you think would be our most effective progressive? Effective, including winning the White House and having a supportive Congress?

Progressive, working for change, accountability and the People?

8. Funny! And true (thankfully). nt

4. The country isn't ready, and your guy isn't going to win. Sorry, but that's just the truth.

But that's the way to write inspiring and exhortative political text....hopefully you'll use those talents to assist whosoever makes it through to the general.

6. Edwards

Is there any way these guys could get together?

[MADem]

7. I don't think Edwards would be comfortable with DK as his VP.

In fact, I don't think he'd give DK any slot in his government.

That's just my sense.

[tekisui]

9. I appreciate that.

I consider you a tough crowd. Come next Summer, I will be promoting a Democrat, without hesitation.:hi:

5. The corporations may win,

but those that wish to vote for Dennis should instead of giving up their votes to the accepted conventional "wisdom" of capitulation. Only then can you make a difference.

[johncoby2]

11. Last I heard, corporations dont vote.

Those voting in the primary do. So get your ass out in your primary and convince others to support DK.

Go door to door. Phone bank. Instead of preaching to this DU choir.

10. Actually the democratic nominee will likely be chosen by

March of next year.
