You'd think he'd learn.

6. Resentementento
I haven't looked into what he is about, but when someone I knew was dying with AIDS in the 80s, mr larouche was promoting the idea of creating concentration camps to isolate people with AIDS... Makes me feel a little biased.

7. Scientologists?
I always thought Larouche would have been a good replacement for L Ron. :)

8. There are a lot of State Democratic Central committee members supporting
him. I was surprised by the number of his supporers I've seen at meetings. Even more surprising to me, the people in the party who are supporting him are some of the nicest, most pleasant people in the party. I think the hassle is with the people outside the party structure who are pushy (sort of like Deanies).

I don't know a lot about him. He is apparently a Roosevelt Democrat who claims he was framed for political reasons. With what we've seen since Bush has been in office, it wouldn't surprise me if he were telling the truth on that one. If he's telling the truth on that one, it could happen to any of the nine current candidates.

I am a little curious about what is really going on with this guy. It would be good to have some non-paranoid answers about who is he and what he stands for.

Just because we don't agree with him, doesn't mean we can't be civilized.

9. genius I dont know much about him but all I hear is negative
It was his supporters who disrupted the Baltimore debate, I know you have had problems with the Dean supporters as have a few times but there are exceptions I know. Still go Kucinich.
