Is Kucinich married?

Listening to Mike Malloy's show, Tony Trupiano is subsituting. A caller mentioned he wasn't married. But I thought he has mentioned having children? Is he divorced or widowed??

Just curious.

2. Twice divorced,

daughter from his second marriage, now 21 and about to embark on a career in Journalism.

And the running joke around here is hubby hopes I never meet him!*LOL*

6. Thanks, Guys!

I never knew that.

The caller stated that it would be weird not having a married president. I bet he'd get a lot of dates though!! ;-)

Heck, I'd send him my number, if I was single.

7. If you get Cspan,

and swoon over Dennis at all, keep an eye out this weekend for the PPFA Women's Issues Forum. It's supposed to be aired on C-span, and Kucinich bowled me over with his comments about being a bachelor!*LOL*

3. divorced

Does have a steady girlfriend. Haven't seen a picture of her, though. I think someone said that she is Jewish, but I'm not sure.

8. I really like Dennis

I shook his hand when he came to Maine. His hand was not soft and wussy, but strong. He is slight and short for a man, but is better looking in person than his pictures--actually he looks like anyone else. He has a really wonderful smile.

9. I was the caller. Yes, Kucinich is divorced and unfortunately

that is a real liability. Check your history.

11. check your reality

you are calling a left wing radio show with information about one of the left's candidate's liability? by being a divorcee?

:eyes:

12. A LOT of people think that not being married is a bad thing

Especially for someone of his age. It's sad, but people may see it as a negative thing...

13. I don't want to look up the #'s

but suspect there are many more non-married, and married/divorced, multiply married/divorced, remarried, ad infinitum...voters than to let this become an issue on a candidate's viability.

seems that some are just insisting on finding an 'unelectability' issue, since no matter what's been thrown out there hasn't stuck yet.

if you or anyone else is looking for a negative, look in the white house.

14. Divorcee is a feminine term FYI. I was just saying quite candidly

that I thought that a person running for president would have a real hard time because he is not married. It's not my personal belief, beliee me...I am just looking at the overall picture.

Last president who was "single" was Buchannon..Doesn't that tell y9ou something?

Yeah, the American people are weird, but that's the way it goes.

15. fwiw, i knew that

but to say b/c ' he was a divorce' just didn't make sense...

btw, i'll check my spelling/grammer/syntax etc on the next post.
but it's not an 'american people' thing, it's a human trait.

pot/kettle i suppose.

16. Yep

Its just that marriage is so common among politicans and all. "too short, too ugly, too left, not married, funny last name" it goes on.
