Poll question: Are we looking at the next Attorney General of the United States?
Dennis Kucinich (D-Balls) is reading his Articles of Impeachment against President George W. Bush, his agents and subordinates, and Vice President Dick Cheney. Apparently only CSPAN has wires connected to this room, since none of the GOP-controlled media are covering it as yet. Are we watching the next Attorney General of the United States?

He'll make great law when we have a great President.

6. We certainly need someone as AG...
...who understand the laws and has the balls to do this.

13. True
My fantasy choice won't do it nor should he - John Kerry

I am digging on the idea of Patrick Fitzgerald though.

5. Kucinich isn't a lawyer.
Not likely he'd be appointed AG, considering.

9. Right.
And since there are so few in Congress with his kind of courage, we need him there.

8. No, that's for Edwards. Kucinich does great things in Congress.

10. Feingold would be a great AG
He's a lawyer to the core. Not that we'd give up our Senator easily.

15. What makes him qualified for such a position?
He has no formal training in law as far as I know.

17. I'd rather see him as speaker.
That's not likely.

In a presidential administration, I'd like to see him head the new department of peace.

I'd really like to see Dennis in charge of health care, because we KNOW he has the real deal when it comes to the plan. If he's not in the cabinet, I hope he gets Speaker of the House.

20. Love Kucinich -- and actually he'd be a fine AG, with or without law degree . .
Supreme Court also OK --

we could use some HUMAN values in both places!!!

21. Fitzgerald makes the most sense, especially if he had to go after Cheney&Bush when they leave DC.
