Kucinich for President: 

Strength Thru Peace vs. Submission to Power

America is bogged down in a quagmire. The war in Iraq has diminished
Americas standing in the world.

After the tragedy of 9/11, the spontaneous outpouring of nationwide
sympathy was phenomenal. Less than two years later, George Bush,
Dick Cheney and the neocons launched a war based on lies. In 2006,
American voters elected a Democratic Majority in the U.S. Congress
in order to end the conflict in Iraq.

Sadly, the Democratic Majority has failed in doing that. While the
other Democratic Candidates for President vote to continue funding
the war, Congressman Dennis Kucinich has a perfect voting record
of opposition to the war in Iraq. Dennis voted against the war from
the very beginning in 2002.

Since then, Dennis has consistently voted against every bill to
fund and prolong the war. No other candidate has opposed the war
100% of the time.

It's time to stand for Strength Through Peace:  Make a Contribution
Today At the same time, other Democratic candidates for President
are now proposing an expansion of America's war in the Middle East.
Several have advocated threatening military attack against Iran.
Others are now calling for military action against Pakistan. Sen.
Barack Obama has recently advocated unilateral military action
against a nuclear power - Pakistan. Sen Barack Obama's decision to
threaten action against a nuclear power is simply reckless. Dennis
Kucinich believes we need to use diplomacy first. As Dennis stated
last week at the CNN/YouTube Debate in Charleston, South Carolina,
we should only use military action as a very last resort.

In this presidential race, Dennis Kucinich stands alone. Dennis
believes that American foreign policy is broken  and that Bush,
Cheney and the neocons broke it.

Dennis Kucinichs plan is simple: Strength through Peace. Dennis
believes that American foreign policy should be founded on the
principle of peace and not submission to power. George Washington,
Thomas Jefferson and the other Founding Fathers warned America not
to become entangled in foreign wars.

Alone amongst the presidential candidates, Dennis Kucinich advocates
a new era in American history led by a new foreign policy  Strength
through Peace

Dennis's message of Strength Through Peace at every presidential

With Peace as the starting point for foreign policy, Dennis Kucinich
will restructure the American economy for the 21st century. By
saving billions of dollars from the bloated and wasteful defense
budget, Dennis will invest in America's people by building new
schools, new hospitals, new industries that will allow America  not
only to survive but to thrive into the 21st century and beyond.

The cost of Dennis' campaign to transition America from a state of
war to a state of peace are mounting. Dennis needs your help  and
he needs it today.

With many new projects launching in the upcoming weeks, including
the launching of our new campaign website, we need to increase our
fundraising efforts.
