rawstory.com — "Wake up America," Kucinich declared from the podium of the Democratic National Convention. "In 2001 the oil companies, the war contractors and the neocon-artists seized the economy and added $4 trillion of unproductive spending to the national debt. ... Trillions of dollars for an unnecessary war paid for with borrowed money."

Exactly!But also: Wall Street would hate a president like Kucinich: he would be the president of the workers, not the puppet of the corporations. Workers would earn more and have better healthcare, while corporations would make less money.And the World would be more peaceful, which the military-industrial complex would just hate.Now just look at who owns the mass-media, and you will see why they pretend he cannot win, and then people believe that because they refuse to see how deeply TV influences them.

He saved the city of Cleveland nearly 200million dollars by not giving into the banks even when they unprecedentedly called for the city's debts to be paid in full. (*previously until Dennis these debts had been rolled over.)Clearly Cleveland wants more pushover politicians that cave for short term electability.

He is only upset because the Republicans spent it before he and his Libtard cronies could give it away to lazy, worthless, welfare craving Americans or to the poor, impoverished global community, who would gladly take it and then laugh at us behind our backs as we walked away. Either way, whichever party is in power, the money gets spent and you and I (if you work) have to pay more taxes. At least the Republicans did something worthwhile with the money by using it to remove a savage, murdering thug from power in Iraq and by showing the world that there will be consequences if we are attacked.

I love the phrase "unproductive spending" because it makes it clear that he isn't opposed to spending $4 trillion we don't have, his issue is with how we spent it. Which means that even Dennis is still part of the problem. The government is broken, you can't fix it, the only thing you can do is make it as small and impotent as possible and limit what it breaks.

I am not liberal, but Kucinich is saying exactly what I am wanting people to know. Wake up and speak out against all this fraud and theft.
