To the Kucinich people

As a Clark supporter, let me just say that the class and dignity that you all show on this board is nothing short of astounding.

I can only wish, at some point in my life, to be able to ocassionally show the respect and understanding that you bring to these pages daily.

I commend you for your behavior, your candidate, and your cause, and ask others (supporters of all candidates) to do likewise.

Bravo.

1. Thank you so very much, DBear!
You guys supported someone who was a class act as a candidate, and it's clear why: you guys are class acts, too!

2. You Clark supporters ARE class and dignity.
Thank you, I know I do not always live up to my candidate but I am trying. I have found almost every one of the Clark supporters to have been very kind and respectful, even when I expressed my doubts about him (they were disappearing). But you know how I feel. :hug:

3. Thanks for noticing, DancingBear!
We also get put down for being "too sensitive", so it's gratifying to hear that our sensitivity gets noticed AND appreciated.

It displays a lot of class when someone is going through their own downpoint, as you are currently, and still reaches out to commend others. I'm glad you're in our world!

4. Thank you DB
Although most of the DK supporters here are much more respectful than I can be, IMHO. But it still means a lot, and it's good to know that some people appreciate this!

And we're still gonna kick some Bush ass in November-- and kick it hard!

Clark supporters have generally been pretty classy as well. Clark himself was the epitome of class when speaking last night and today.

13. I second that.
I caught a snip of him speaking on NPR on my way home tonight; the classiest "concession" speech I've ever heard. Except that it wasn't really a concession speech (I just don't know what else to call it); he didn't concede the battle, just redirected his role in it.

Clark and his supporters, with their responses, give me another breath of hope and burst of energy. We WILL deliver an eviction notice to GWB in November; and we'll do it all together.

12. Why thank you!
i'm not generally as classy as i'd like to be, but then when i start thinking(its quite an important thing to do i recently learned), I try to present myself in a way that would not disrespect the position on the candidate i support. now if only everyone did that we could tell the dems from the reps as they can do nothing to disrespect their candidate.

14. What can I add...
...except to second all this exchange of compliments!

I agree, for being such a tough hombre, Wesley Clark has proved himself quite a classy guy.

I found Clark very appealing and forthright is his message. I thoroughly enjoyed him and I hope he venture into the political arena again. We will benefit from his wisdom and good sense.

17. Thanks DB...
I hope I am included, although my cynical streak sometimes gets the best of me. :evilgrin:

I was very surprised and dissapointed when Clark dropped out. He was up there in his policies and supporters who wanted progress in this whole silly mess we have.

thanks,

TWL
