A most-dedicated Kucinich supporters changes clothes
I guess we have our Mr. Anybody But Bush for President! Let's see how it turns out.

It's going to be an interesting year, I think. I'm interested in seeing where the media machine takes us next. I'm not interested in what John Kerry is going to be saying I must admit, I am interested in what GW will be saying.

We as (progressive?) Democrats will have to identify the many stereotypes and subtely misleading strategies this pig and his team will employ, immediately, and proliferate their solutions. I'm not a believer in John Kerry, so I think we'll have to do it for him. But that's okay. We'll take care of the problem at hand, and continue the conversation later.

Let's take the American people forward to a little less dangerous point.

I, as a Kucinich believer, think that I can contribute to the Kerry campaign by advocating liberal beliefs, as they are in stark contrast to the Bush adminstrations various twisted mantras. That's my plan. Also, I think all of us, Kucinich and Dean supporters, Clark and Edwards supporters, should be nominating someone out of the local network we have created to state and federal legislative positions. When you give it some thought, you'll agree with me that the real way to change this country is to replace the legislature, particularly our Representatives, as they are MOST accountable to the public. That's my plan.

Don't know if it'll be me yet, but I'm considering it. Our local 'democrat' here in KY advocates making KY more attractive to entrepreneurs (sp) by giving them tax incentives. Sounds like a fucking Republican needing crushed.

Anyway, let's get this asshole outta the White House, this guy doesn't deserbe Thomas Jefferson's job.

1. Yes, Go for the Legislatures
This is what worked so frighteningly well for the Religious Right. They realized they couldn't take the presidency in the 1980's, went back & got on school boards, state legislatures & governor's mansions, Congress, Senate, and now, twenty years later, they do control the Presidency and possibly the Judicial branch.

Progressives, this is how we take our country back. We're not ready for a Dennis Kucinich for President now, but maybe in twenty years...
(and if he - or she - is just a little more presidential looking it might help)

2. That's the plan and it is a good one.
We will fight the Republicans, We will fight the Republicans on the school boards, We will fight the Republicans on the county and city planning boards, We will fight the Republicans on the city councils, We will fight the Republicans on the water district boards, We will fight the Republicans on the public utility commissions, We will fight the Republicans in the county commissions, We will fight the Republicans in the city governments, We will fight the Republicans in the state Legislatures, We will fight the Republicans in the state houses, We will fight the Republicans in the Congress.

And we will never, ever give up.
