"Fear, Hate, Racism and the Pain of 9/11" a last minute plea from Dennis Kucinich

Dear Friends,



Cleveland is the epicenter of a sub-prime meltdown with an extraordinary level of foreclosures and a very high level of unemployment.



My Republican opposition has thrown into this mix the politically incendiary issue of immigration through radio ads, telephone calls, electronic billboards and direct mail.



Here is a link to one of several gutter level distortions that are appearing in mailboxes across the district.

Additionally, my supporters in the district who have chosen to put up lawn signs in support of my candidacy are receiving at their door anonymous circulars which can only be described as menacing, aimed at stirring up hate, racism and the pain of 9/11

I'm heartened by the response to my campaign's appeal over the last two days.

People really do care. People really do want a government that's decent and fair. People want a nation that IS courageous, that seeks unity, that tries to live the deeper meaning of democracy. 

Thank you, so much for everything that you do to keep these sentiments alive.

Sincerely

Dennis

When was the last time you heard something like this during an election? This follows, of course an ask for help that is not nasty, incendiary in reply to the opponents tactics.

I am sick to death of the screaming, bare knuckle threats and disingenuous slander that goes into every ad or flyer or mailer.
