Establishment pundits and corporate Democrats had hoped the Kucinich campaign would just disappear. But with new hiring across the country, expansion of the website and enhanced constituency outreach, our campaign keeps growing.
NEW VIDEO ON THE WEB: A powerful video about Dennis Kucinich -- his
history, issues and campaign -- is viewable on our site. Spread this video, "This Is The Moment," to your friends. It is hosted by actor Hector Elizondo and features Ed Asner, James Cromwell and Mimi Kennedy.

The office is led by Placido Salazar placido@kucinich.us and Bobbie Salazar. Placido is a Northern New Mexico native of Hispanic and First

WILLIE USES THE "F" WORD: At a news conference with Dennis Saturday in Dubuque, Iowa, Willie Nelson offered more praise for the candidate. One of his points didn't get quoted in the press: "I'm supporting Dennis Kucinich because of the F word: 'farmers,'" said Willie.
