Regretable....

That's unfortunate for the country. But Dennis has to concentrate on remaining in congress now. He is my first choice and will be for as long as he runs, but he's been royally fucked by his own party and the piglets in the Media. From the Des Moine Register up to CNN and everywhere in between, Dennis Kucinich was denied his right to run for President.

Perhaps one day we'll be collectively intelligent enough as a nation to elect Dennis. Cleveland learned the value of Kucinich foresight the easy way. Maybe one day the rest of the nation will learn the same lesson they did.

My vote will now go to John Edwards without any doubt.

Everytime I take one of those tests, I come close to 100% with Dennis. He's been right on everything, right from the start.

Something else is needed to get through the thick heads of the American System.

You match with Dennis because you don't like liars. Dennis never lies. Dennis is the smartest Democrat in the party. He is the essence of logic when it comes to 99.9% of the issues.

It took Cleveland twenty years to learn this lesson, hopefully it won't take the rest of us quite that long.
Maybe Dennis, Gravel, and Ron Paul will form a third party one day. I guess nice guys really do finish last.

Now that party would have one f***ed up platform.

I don't get it either. Why is the majority still picking from a pool of who is going to lie to them the least? The way many parse things to make what's in their head match up to what their candidate actually says and does, makes for interesting spin. Why are the ones that say what they actually believe is the best course for American policy the "crazy" ones and the folks giving a steady flow of ambiguity and spin the "reliable" ones?

Edwards is the Dems only chance. Ford proved Obama can't win in the south and Hillary will drive out men who have never voted before. These guys won't know who they are voting for, but they will for damn sure know who they're voting against.

But at the end of day, I'm not sure why it matters. Dems took the House in '06 as a result of protest over the "war". I wish I could personally thank them for all they have done to end it since taking office.
