Getting Started

Getting a blog started with the title, Why not Dennis, is a rather daunting project. First of all, Dennis Kucinich deserves a lot more attention than he has been getting from the mainstream media as well as from the voters. I, for one, would not have thought much about him had I not read his website through and then signed up to receive his email postings.
At first these came through slowly and eradically. Now they are often and of such importance that I decided to take it upon myself to begin a frequent blog listing all the reasons we need to keep up the pressure to get the votes out for this incredible man.
What a lucky thing too that someone short, male, white and with a funny voice is running for president. He fits none of the stereotypes of a man who wants to take charge of the one of the largest military/industrial/technological complexes in the world. I think what those people fear is the way in which he may begin to dismantle it all. That's right, he is not interested in helping billionaires run the world, he is more interested in the nickel and dime kind of businesses that will help working people like you and me. There is not much money in good health care run for the people who need it. Nor is there much money for the array of consultants and lobbyists who want to keep the wheels of government greased for those who train and send out mercenary armed forces.
Think about the ways in which this country would be changed, not overnight, but certainly incrementally and constantly if a president of Dennis' caliber were running the show. My mind buckles with the number of possibilities that emerge when I ponder the array of changes, the magnitude of each one and how that would change, for the better, the way we live each and every day of our lives.
But we must hasten this time of change because the powers that be right now are on a truly horrific path to further destruction of countries, people and the environment. The only way to begin the end of their reign and to ensure that Dennis Kucinich is elected is to get involved in any way that you can.
Perhaps the best and most efficient way at this moment is to start talking about why Dennis is the best person for the job and that we don't have to fear who he is taking money from in order to do the work that we will be putting him in place to do for us.
Please think about this now and let's all get moving together.
Thanks.
