Patch Adams endorses Kucinich

I just got this in an email from the Kucinich campaign though I understand the endorsement came last week.

A WORD FROM DR. PATCH ADAMS
One vote Kucinich has just brought out is Dr. Patch Adams, the social-change agent made famous in the movie starring Robin Williams. Patch says: "I have been a political activist for 40 years, always voting, yet I never got active in a campaign because I never felt the candidate was progressive enough and often voted for the least dangerous. Dennis has the intelligence and courage to make love a value. Please vote for him. Together we can do it."

2. He describes my political history,

although for me it's 30, not 40 years. Always voting, never campaigning because I never really liked any of the candidates; voting for the lesser of the evils, so to speak. Until Kucinich.

8. Kucinich really appeals to those who care about others

If people vote their conscience in the primary, he'll win.

4. Patch Adams is the best doctor in America -always putting patients first

I am really surprised about the attacks by some people on leaders who puts people first and doctors who put patients first.
