He should go to the Robinsons'. They've lost nine today.

Kucinich is always the last to withdraw from the Democratic primary. Except for, well, the guy that wins.

Show me some naked pictures of your wife and I'll vote for you.

"You're not fooling anyone, you know."

Kucinich is a good guy. I'm in line with most of his ideologies.

Some of Kucinich's other proposals, such as ...creating a Department of Peace to replace the Department of Defense, have sometimes been viewed as controversial.

No shiat. What a fricken crackpot.

Well, OK. So we shouldn't REPLACE the Department of Defense (which has a far better name than it used to : Dept. of War, even when NOT at war with anyone).

But I could support a Department of Peace. You know, something like what the Department of State SHOULD be.

They could set aside money to manufacture signs and hand out mega-phones to unemployed boomers. Brilliant!

I like this guy. I wish he could get his voice heard over the other clowns running.

I'm amazed how often I hear something along the lines of "I really agree with Kucinich, but c'mon, he's not going to win."
Makes me wonder what the country would be like if people voted for candidates they like, rather than those they feel they're "supposed to" vote for.

Bring out your dead, (rarwl) bring out your dead, (rarwl).....

"I'm getting better"

"Actually, I think I'll pull through, sir"

Hot wife thread!

i wouldn't withdraw early with a wife like that, either

No shiat, your hot wife is the only thing keeping you in it.

Lets say you really like Kucinich, but know he has no chance of winning. You also think that Obama isn't terrible and hate hillary. Who should you vote for in that situation?

I feel HAPPYYYY!
I feel HAPPYYYY!

The thing is, I like Kucinich. I agree with him on 99% of his platform, and he doesn't speak down to the voting public, like every other candidate out there. I voted for him in the 04 primary and I'll vote for him in this primary.

What I think would be good for the country would be a Kucinich vs. Paul election. Personally, I think Ron Paul is nuttier than squirrel shiat and everything out of his mouth drives me up a damn wall, but he also acts like the voters are intelligent. It would be nice to see two people who are actually passionate about their ideals and believe in the voting public to square off. Maybe that would give American politics the shot in the ass it so desparately needs.

It's only a flesh wound..

Do us a favor!

Kucinich is the only Democrat in this race who had the guts to vote against the patriot act, the only one pushing for a universal health care plan that will actually work (Why do you think individual mandates are so rarely used internationally?), and has a far better record of standing up to big business and keeping the country out of war than anyone.

It's pretty depressing that he's only getting 0-2% of the vote, but I'm proud to say I'm among that 0-2%.

I'm gettin' better!

He will not have been mortally wounded in vain!

Spindle: Show me some naked pictures of your wife and I'll vote for you.

That...that might actually do it for me. If theres any tats or piercings the deals off though.

I'd draft people into the peace corps. just for the experiment. Watch patriotic Americas froth at the mouth over having to help poor foreigners rather than kill them.

Anyone see the brief Kucinich cameo on the Simpsons on Sunday?

"I heard that!"

You'll be stone dead in a moment.

Guess_Who: No shiat, your hot wife is the only thing keeping you in it.

So, how big is the platform he's standing on in that pic? I'm betting about a foot.

As for actually voting for him:
1) Iirc, he's against the Afghanistan mission. That would sour a lot of people.
2) FPTP means people hold their nose and vote against the hated front-runner by picking the most likely victor as an alternative. It is simply impractical to vote for your preferred canidate under the asinine FPTP system.

A JOKE 30 yrs ago as X Boy Wonder nearly recalled Mayor of Cleveland

JOKE last 11 years as Achieve Nothing representative from NE Ohio

Will be JOKE until population loss ( 2000 Census ) eliminates District - Come 2010

Look at what he has done for his constituents in NE Ohio - Cleveland Poorest Major City in USA ( Top 10 last 4 years - #1 Twice ) PATHETIC

Runs his mouth but accomplishes nothing ( except for denny's ego )

Besides. That's the State Department's job. Tho lately it's just been another wing of the Pentagon.

Unless he is begging to be Hillary's running mate, he is pretty much as dead as B. Hussein Obama.

Ron Paul is your only choice!

Wake up people!

9-11 was a lie!

If we were an intelligent country, we wouldn't say this or this person can't win, I'm not voting for him. That is THE only way you can assure the country will continue it's course down the shiatter...


gg voters.

Yup, Yup, Yup, and Yup. He's not a rich bastard either. He's just a plain middle-class guy from Ohio who's short. (Hmm, I'm a short middle-class guy from Ohio too!)

He's not running for president.

He's running for as many delegates as he can get to bargain his way into a high level cabinet position and to get certain environmental changes passed through. He's a good man, and too smart to be fooled by all this presidential media vortex of stupid.

I don't want to go on the cart!

This is by far the dumbest thing i have read all week. Seriously, people say shiat like this expecting to get elected?

why don't you say that to the new secretary of peace?

Talk about two candidates that have absolutely no core values in common.

[s]Yeah, who'd vote for a guy who values peace... pfft. Silly hippies...[/s]

Mr. Anon:

Lets say you really like Kucinich, but know he has no chance of winning. You also think that Obama isn't terrible and hate hillary. Who should you vote for in that situation?

Kucinich. Always vote for your beliefs. This mentality of "oh I really like candidate x, but he'll never be elected so I won't vote for him" is the type of mentality that keeps alternate political parties from gaining ground. It also encourages people to tolerate mediocre candidates within their own party, and that's something I can't stand.

Candidates like Kucinich are great. Their entertainment value (UFOs) is priceless as the "serious" candidates offer not-going-to-happen platitudes such as universal healthcare. Yet the guy is dead wrong on everything except of course the hot wife.

I'd say vote for who would be the best president. I agree with SnipeBob that the "no chance of winning" mentality is what got us so firmly fixed in this "two party" system. Voting for the lesser of two evils ensures evil will be victorious.

I yet again propose "the negative vote": You may vote for someone or against someone. Problem solved. All those who are worried Hillary would become president can cancel the votes of those who think she'd be wonderful, and the rest of the nation can pick a less divisive, better president.

That is why you want approval voting - put an X next to every candidate you are okay with. No spoiler effect, and you can still vote for the lesser of two evils if you think that is necessary.

/there are other good systems as well, but they tend to get fairly complicated for a process lots of people do very infrequently

Elizabeth Kucinich has a tongue stud.
