So far this year, the Cardinal staff has printed some great articles on important issues such as the Patriot Act, LGBT rights, the minimum wage, anti-war/peace, etc. However, to my knowledge you have not mentioned the name of the candidate who has taken similar stances on these issues: Dennis Kucinich.
u He is the only candidate who voted against the Patriot Act.
u He is the only candidate who has said he will vote against the $87 billion for Iraq.
u He is the only candidate who has submitted a single-payer universal health-care plan to Congress.
u He is the only candidate who supports withdrawal from NAFTA and the WTO.
u He is the only candidate who supports cutting Pentagon spending (by 15 percent) by elimination of programs such as \Star Wars.""
u He is the only candidate who has pledged to sign the Kyoto Treaty on global warming.
u He has the highest voting record from the AFL-CIO and American Civil Liberties Union.
u He is the only candidate to support medical marijauna.
u He is the only candidate calling for nuclear disarmament.
u Along with only Al Sharpton and Carol Mosely-Braun, he supports outlawing the death penalty and the War on Drugs.
u He is one of two candidates who support gay marriage.
u He and Graham are the only candidates who voted against the war with Iraq. Kucinich led over 100 congressmen in voting against the war. He spoke up early and often.
