Kucinich 2nd with 30% in Hawaii Primary
The results from yesterday's primary are in, and Dennis placed 2nd in the Hawaii primary with 30% of the vote. This gives him 8 of Hawaii's 20 unpledged delegates, who will go to the national convention in Boston in July. In Maui, Dennis won with 50% of the vote. In other primaries yesterday, Dennis took 7% of the vote in Utah and 6% in Idaho.

WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO PEACE ON EARTH
Two of Dennis' biggest supporters in Hawaii are Willie Nelson and his wife Annie. Willie would like for you to listen to the song he wrote for Dennis on Christmas Day, called "What Ever Happened to Peace on Earth". We are working now to make the audio of this song available for you - here is the link to where the audio, along with the lyrics, will be later this evening:

KUCINICH DEMANDS GREENSPAN RESIGNATION
Congressman and presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich today renewed his demand that Alan Greenspan resign after the Federal Reserve Chairman testified before the House Budget Committee advocating cutting Social Security benefits to deal with the deficit. Kucinich believes ordinary Americans and future generations should not have to carry the burden of tax cuts for the rich.

STEPS FOR PEACE WALK
Inspired by Dennis Kucinich, Steps for Peace Walk Across America to End 2/29
The Steps for Peace walk across America initiated by 21-year-old Iowan Jonathan Meier will conclude this Sunday, 2/29/04 in San Francisco (two days before the CA primary election). The walk from Maine to California is meant to promote a culture of peace and nonviolence and call attention to Dennis Kucinich's presidential candidacy. More than 1500 people across 25 states have become partners in taking Steps for Peace by walking, hosting, donating food, and organizing around the walk's arrival in their community. The walk, which began on October 17, 2003 in Portland, Maine will have taken 136 days to complete. On Sunday, the journey will end with a walk from Golden Gate Park (11:00 AM) to Herbst Theater (3:00 PM), the site where the UN charter was created in 1945. The walk will end with a closing ceremony and prayer for America. Please participate in the walk's final day by joining us in San Francisco, or taking Steps for Peace in your own community.
