Kucinich in Cleveland
Dennis Kucinich briefly returned home from the campaign trail and gave a talk yesterday at CWRU entitled "Iraq and Iran: the Way Forward.". He's the most vociferous Democratic candidate for defunding the war, for ending America's occupation of Iraq by closing all American bases there, for having an international force come in and try to keep the peace, and for having Congress go on record to say that Bush can't start a war with Iran. While he's not the most charismatic guy and his views on these issues are not popular even within the Democratic party, which he severely criticised, in my opinion they are views and policies which are the most forward-thinking and would serve the interests of more Americans than any other candidate's views. It's a shame most of the country would never vote for him.

Another Ohio politician, Jerry Springer of "talk" show fame, delivered a similar message yesterday at the Northwestern. Coincindence, or the beginning of the single most entertaining ticket in political history?
There's no way that a Kucinich-Springer ticket would work. Kucinich is a man of peace (proponent of establishing the Department of Peace), while Springer's "demographic" likes to see people hit with chairs.
Besides, two homely guys on the ticket doesn't work.
