The deadline approaches
Another message from Dennis Kucinich (audio):
Hi everyone, this is Dennis.
Well, the odds are long but, you know they've always been. And so is our commitment. Our commitment is steadfast, it's a commitment that we've made to peace and social and economic justice, and that commitment remains. As we are in the closing hours of our fundraising effort to achieve matching funds, I just want to let you know that by midnight tonight in your time zone we still have the time to double all the campaign contributions, under matching funds which will go to the end of this day. You can help double the money by making a contribution right now, to our ongoing presidential campaign.
People are asking me why am I still in this race, it looks like it's over. You know, I said I'm in this race until the Democratic party takes a stand to get out of Iraq, to bring in U.N. Peacekeepers and to bring our troops home. I'm in this race until the party will pledge to provide universal single-payer not for profit health care, a national health care plan under which everyone is covered. I'm in this race until the party takes s stand on behalf of fair trade, where we can be sure that we have workers rights, human rights, and environmental quality principles in all of our trade agreements.
I'm in this race as someone who takes a stand on behalf of those who don't have a voice. The Democratic Party can be so much more, and will be so much more, by our continued and consistent involvement, and only if we can have this debate inside the party can we encourage people from across this country to vote Democrat in November. So you are an important part of our ongoing efforts.
My commitment remains as steadfast as ever, and has never wavered for a moment. Nor has yours. Which is the reason that we've been able to come this far. And I'm so grateful for the common effort which this campaign represents, for the hopes that we've given so many American, for the hopes that remain to be realized. And so, in the next few hours, do whatever you can to help us continue this effort, to help us in the Florida primary that's upcoming, in the Texas primary that's upcoming, to help us as we continue to get our message out, as we make our march all the way towards the convention. Because this campaign started with the intention that we will change the politics of this country. And we can't stop now, we are no where near our goal.But we are a lot farther along than we were when we first started.
So thank you, I love all of you, and let's keep moving ahead. Thank you. Bye.
Dennis Kucinich
