So far, the only politician anywhere that has earned my vote

is Dennis Kucinich. Only time will tell if he is the only one capable of receiving my vote in any form concerning the federal government.

1. DK has always been ahead of the curve

Knew not to support the war from the outset, has PLANS that will help us get out of our messes and start doing something positive in the world again.

2. I agree--but even he was a few years too late--K&R.

4. The fellow who stood in for Randi yesterday........

was ripping Kucinich a new one. Pretty much debunking all the things that we had heard about Dennis. Can anyone back up this substitutes charges?

6. At last a statesman vs a poltiician.

If only the rest would learn from him.

7. *shrug* I find him kind of doctrinaire and condescending, though impressive

Clearly the guy's brilliant and honest; but he's too doctrinaire for me. I love the idea of a department of peace and working to end war by preventing domestic violence. But I would be very very hard pressed to vote for someone whose platform includes a complete ban on handguns for civilians.

8. Even as a DK supporter, I can understand that

Jim Webb offers a lot of the same wisdom without the talking down-ness

But he's not even considering running for President, that I have heard of.
