As Gore learned all too late, ignoring them is the worst thing you can do, and next worst is being nice to the villagers.<BR/><BR/>As for Kucinich, he is the best of the Democratic Party candidates for president. So why bother with holding him to a standard that none of the others can reach? Corporate media propaganda has conditioned us to accept Kucinich as unelectable, and yet, he fits most within the mainstream of American thinking in poll after poll--and among those who claim to hold various positions and values.<BR/><BR/>Corporate media and the DC villagers are not a conspiracy. They are, as Vidal once or twice tried to explain to Hillary Clinton, a structure and a system.Mitchell J.

Not One of Them can turn this country away from its militaristic, empire building path. Kucinich will at least begin the process. Think how great it would be to have Col. Ann Wright as Secy of Defense. Why not? Kucinich believes in the US; the others don't really.Lee Loehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07879144039499378305noreply@blogger.com
