100. Yeah, and I'm the Pope
"Among my friends, most say "Yes, nobody better represents me than Dennis Kucinich. But I don't think he's electable." "

You appear to assume that your friends are a representative sample of the electorate. They are not. Kucinich does not represent even mainstream Democratic Party opinion, much less the population in general.

Get a clue: AT MOST in the polls he bumps along at 2 or 3 percent of likely DEMOCRATIC voters. This is not because the people polled don't know who he is. It is because he's not that impressive.

"His exclusion from coverage by major media is precisely because he is supremely electable."

I am possibly the Virgin Mary, also.
