DENNIS KUCINICH

THE VOICE OF TRUE CHANGE

If one closely examines the current 9 Democratic Candidates for President, we soon see there is only one voice of true change - the voice of Dennis Kucinich.

Kucinich is in a class all his own with regards to his stands on: universal health care, the cutting of the pentagon budget and allocation of funds to social programs and free education (pre-k through college), the repealing of the Patriot Act, environmental responsibility, workers rights over corporate rights, federal rights for gays, and the prioritizing of Peace over war.

Dean, Kerry, and Gephardt

Those who are opposed to the war in Iraq have probably heard of candidate Howard Dean and his opposition to the war. While on the surface, this anti-war position may sound attractive, Howard Dean is actually FAR from an anti-war candidate, and pales in comparison to the pro-active Peace-making policies of Congressman Kucinich.

DEAN FACTS:
Dean plans no cuts in military spending, wishing to increase "homeland security" and expand the "war on terror" into places like Saudi Arabia and Syria.

Dean proudly supported the Persian Gulf war, and the war on Afghanistan, claiming he will use military force anywhere in the world he sees fit.

Dean imparts a ONE-SIDED stance on the long standing brutal Israel-Palestine conflict, as he is heavily supported by the America-Israel Public Affairs Committee.

"Howard Dean is aligned with the extreme right-wing Jewish organization the America-Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), which supports the policies of Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and his government’s ongoing occupation and colonization of Palestinian land seized in the 1967 war, repression of the Palestinian population, and refusal to negotiate with the Palestinian leadership. The liberal wing of America’s Jewish community is represented by the Americans for Peace Now (APN), which supports negotiations with the Palestinians based upon the principle of land for peace, that is, Israeli withdrawal from the occupied territories in exchange for security guarantees. Dean's alignment with AIPAC runs deep. In 2002, Dean named Steven Grossman, a former head of AIPAC, as his campaign's chief fundraiser." -http://www.hermespress.com/HDean/dean_republican.htm

COMPARE KUCINCICH VS. DEAN ON MAJOR ISSUES

Visit www.kucinichdeancompare.com

Ex-Governor Dean is a multi-millionaire; raised Republican; a Yale graduate; descendant of a long line of investment bankers. He supports NAFTA, believes in FOR-PROFIT health insurance, disagrees with any Pentagon cutbacks, advocates aggressive expansion of intelligence, police, and special forces, and has been endorsed by the National Rifle Association for 8 straight elections.

 

REGARDING THE ENVIRONMENT
While Dean professes to be a concerned "Environmentalist,"
the truth about his environmental record is clear to those who live in Vermont. As Annette Smith, the director of Vermonters for a Clean Environment, states, "Dean's attempts to run for president as an environmentalist is nothing but a fraud."

Here's Dean's stance on the global climate change Kyoto Treaty:

* "Former Vermont governor Howard Dean has sided most closely with the Bush administration, endorsing the National Governors Association policy, which opposed the Kyoto Protocol unless it included mandatory emissions cuts for developing countries. The policy recommended that the United States "not sign or ratify any agreement that would result in serious harm to the U.S. economy." Of the Democrats now running, only Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich has stated, "the U.S. must ratify the Kyoto Protocol."

* (According to the Inter Press Service, "Presidential Hopefuls Push Energy Alternatives, Pan Kyoto" by Katherine Stapp, published on Tuesday, June 10, 2003)

Randy Hayes, president of the Rainforest Action Network states:

"Economic policy turns out to be the most important environmental policy. Kucinich is the only presidential candidate calling for the elimination of the World Trade Organization. That alone would do more to support nature's needs than any other environmental action. Vote for Kucinich."

 

REGARDING MEDICAL MARIJUANA

Kucinich suports federal legalization of Medical Marijuana. An online news clip reads: " Senator John Kerry did not specifically address the U.S. Justice Department's raids on medical marijuana patients and caregivers. Thus far U.S. Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio is the only Democratic candidate to explicitly condemn such attacks on seriously ill medical marijuana patients. Vermont Gov. Howard Dean, who worked to kill a medical marijuana bill in Vermont last year, has said he favors an FDA study but has refused to protect patients from arrest. In May, U.S. Sen. John Edwards (D-NC) told the San Francisco Chronicle he has no objection to the Justice Department's arresting patients. U.S. Sen. Joseph Lieberman (D-CT) and U.S. Rep. Richard Gephardt (D-MO) have previously supported legislation condemning state medical marijuana laws. The rest of the Democratic field has yet to take a position."

 

ON BIG BUSINESS

Congressman Dennis Kucinich is not a servant of corporate interest. He went so far as to personally march in the WTO protests in Seattle, Washington.

He gained Ohio loyalty by personally blocking the corrupted private takeover of a Municipal Power Company, saving taxpayers millions from what could have been an "Enron" of the 1970's!



ON WORKERS RIGHTS

While all the other democratic candidates talk about being very concerned about workers's rights, KUCINICH is the only one asserting that he will cancel NAFTA (North American Free Trade Act) and withdraw from the WTO (World Trade Organization), which both contribute to the demise of jobs for Americans, while granting corporations omni-potent capacity to make money at the expense of human dignity the world over.

 

Dennis Kucinich is here to AWAKEN AMERICA;
to get people thinking about the real issues and the real possibilities for our nation.
He is the only Democratic candidate offering a stark contrast to the current administration; he is not working for big business and corporate interests;
his record proves he is a man of integrity.
VOTE KUCINICH!

 

"If governments and their leaders, bound by hierarchy and patriarchy, wedded to military might for legitimacy, fail to grasp the implications of an emerging world consciousness for cooperation, for peace and for sustainability, they may become irrelevant."
-Dennis Kucinich
The Peace Candidate
