Thus, he is the progressive choice and I move to have OpEdNews issue an official endorsement for Dennis Kucinich as the man we progressives or people for "change" should vote for in the Democratic primaries that are to transpire in the next months.

I ask that those who were supporting Dodd and Biden move to support Kucinich and stand for “change.”

Why should we settle for less when we can have so much more?

If you have the opportunity to eat a fully cooked and prepared meal, you don’t settle for a microwaveable T.V. dinner, do you?

All this talk of cutting across the aisle and compromising has our so-called progressive candidates becoming more and more like GOP candidates for president. Talk of this nature should frighten people as possibility of real change becomes more distant as populist talk will begin to be abandoned like John Kerry did in 2004.

As the populist candor drifts away, the possibility for change will weaken and it won't be enough to say that the Democratic nominee will return to his populism when he takes office. What for? Why should he return if he wins without being a man of the people? And why risk losing by alienating the base of voters or becoming uninspirational to them?

I’m advocating voting for the peace idealist to the core, for the man who has been reading the legislation that threatens America from front to back since Day One, and for the man who has been right from the beginning and has the track record of forty years experience to lead us into a new era of “change.”

Dennis Kucinich may have asked Iowans to vote for Obama in Iowa, but he has done no such thing in New Hampshire.

The race is on: Strength Through Peace, America!
