I'm not one to discuss alot of political issues, in fact I rarely do outside of my close close friends. Those of whom i have spoken to about the upcoming presidential elections have heard me speak alot of Barack Obama. Alot of Mr. Obama's ideas appealed to me, but as the politcal world sways and turns so do my opinons on things. I now have a new person I wish would become president- Dennis Kucinich.
Admitedly it has been through my recent viewings of Colbert Report and Daily Show I have been introduced to mr Kucinich. I must say that his recent appearance on Colbert were light hearted and amusing, made me laugh my ass off when Steve pulled sugar from kucinich's breast pocket. but more seriously however, he has issues I believe in. With my recent health issues i've been in and out of hospitals and I saw people in terrible shape, I realize not everyone there was as fortunate as I was in having full health care, especially children (don't even get me started on Bush vetoing that universal healthcare for children bill). Kucinich wants universal health care-universal means everyone. and why shouldn't the government help us out- shit we give them practically half our salaries, but do we have to pay for it? I don't think so.
Kucinich has many great ideas for education reforms and ways of bringing jobs abck to the states. Outsourcing is one of the greatest threats to the American infrasturcture- more so than terrorists that the current regime is constantly bringing up.
I firmly believe that with Dennis Kucinich in office we'll begin to see a new America, a country we can be proud of once again. a place where the world may once again look to in admiration instead of fear. When it comes to election day I sure as hell choose Kucinich.
