My paper prints my ltte endorsing Kucinich 11/6-in time to impeach Cheney!

To the Editor,

We are all exploring the pros and cons of the various candidates running for president. Due to the state of American media, the facts are often superseded by sensationalism. I’d like you all to consider a presidential candidate who stands for the following in both words and actions:


An end to military action in Iraq and the Middle East,with an enhanced focus on diplomacy.

Medicare for All — a universal, single-payer, not-for-profit health care system that leaves no American behind.


Survival of the middle-class-through repeal of NAFTA, promotion of universal education from pre-school through college, rewarding companies who keep business in the United States with strong tax incentives, creating millions of jobs through a public works program combining infrastructure (bridges, dams, roads, etc.) and energy needs of our country.


Restoring the constitutional powers of president by repealing the “unitary executive” privileges empowered by the Military Commissions Act, which elevate the president to a level equivalent to a king or dictator.


Commitment to conserving the water, land and climate through initiatives laid out by the Kyoto Treaty and his proposed Works Green Administration.


Initiatives to prevent homelessness, poverty, and hunger in our country — initiatives sparked by his own experience with homelessness.


Initiatives to restore AMERICAN capitolism by doing away with NAFTA, the WTO and multiglobal corporations that have robbed so many middle class American jobs and taken corporate ownership out of American hands.


These are the issues that concern me. I am endorsing a candidate who has shown through his actions that he sincerely has our nation’s best interests at heart. That candidate is Dennis Kucinich. For more information, go to dennis4president.com.
