Kucinich Continues Tour in Minneapolis
Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich got a raucous reception in Minneapolis.
More than 1,000 supporters jammed the auditorium at Roosevelt High School Tuesday night to hear the Ohio congressman deliver an anti-war, internationalist, unashamedly liberal stump speech.
Among those endorsing him was Winona LaDuke, a White Earth Chippewa band member who was the Green Party's vice presidential candidate. She says Kucinich is "green in his heart."
He also attracted supporters of the late Senator Paul Wellstone. Bumper stickers and Wellstone signs on the stage attested to the overlap.
Kucinich's Minneapolis appearance was the ninth stop in a four-day, 12-city tour that comes eight months after he began running for president, though he didn't formally announce his candidacy until Monday.
