This just in . . .

I just received this link in my email to an audio postcard from Dennis Kucinich, pumped after capturing 50% of the vote in the Alaska primary! Here's the text, or you can click the image of Dennis to hear the audio for yourself. And if you truly want a to see a progressive agenda in this country, send Dennis money and help influence the Democratic Party's platform at the July convention . . .

Hi everyone, this is Dennis!

I just got off the phone with an ABC reporter from Anchorage, Alaska, who informed me that we took 50% of the vote in the Alaska state caucus. That is tremendous news for a campaign that has been growing with strength across this country, and now we've achieved a first place tie in a state, and I'm so excited about it!

As you know in the last week we've had a lot of success. We started off the last week with 17% in Oregon. We went to 25% in the Maine state caucus. We went to 30% in the state convention in Colorado. And now we've received word of 50% in the state of Alaska. I'm in Montana now. I've been campaigning across this state for the primary, which is on June the 8th.

In the last 10 days, we've had stories in the LA Times, in the New York Times, in USA Today. I've been on Meet the Press, on Crossfire, on the Wolf Blitzer show, and on MSNBC. And there's more attention being given to our message. And our stand for peace and for civil liberties and health care for all and fair trade is finally beginning to resonate!

Now, it's true, the direction of the nomination appears to be more or less decided. However, we're having an impact on the direction of our Party, and YOU'RE having an impact on the direction America's going to take for the next four years. So, it's not too late. And it's not too late to give us even more energy in the remaining primaries and caucuses.

So I'm asking for you to double whatever contribution you've made. Help us now make an even stronger statement in states like Montana. Help us now call across this country for a new direction in Iraq that would bring in U.N. peacekeepers and bring our troops home. Our peace plan is finally getting the kind of national attention not only that it deserves, but that will serve to help spur a resolution of what's going on. And our call for universal, single-payer, not-for-profit healthcare is resounding from sea to shining sea because Americans are increasingly being driven into poverty because of this bad health care system.

And so this is something that has been not just my accomplishment, but yours as well.

So let's get ready to take the next step for the next strong showing, and perhaps the next victory. Let's get ready to march into Boston, not only 2000 strong with our supporters coming from all over the country, but also with even more delegates.

So what an exciting windup as we move towards the stretch of this campaign and head towards the finish line! How exciting it is that we are finding an opportunity to at last make the country aware of the power of our campaign and the power of our message. So thank you! So help us keep it going! This is up to you! Please, go to that place at our web page right now where you can make an additional contribution. Help us in the next few primaries. The only thing that stands between us and victory is a few more dollars! Make it happen!

So thank you. Let's continue our efforts and I couldn't be more proud of the campaign team that we put together in places like Oregon and Maine and Colorado and Alaska and all the other states where we gained delegates and all the other states where we have strong support! We're putting something together that's gonna change this country. You know it and I know it. So let's keep moving ahead.

Thank you so much! And make sure that you go to that place where you can help us raise the money we need to continue empowering our efforts. I look forward to seeing you soon! This is Dennis. Thank you!

Yes! I can feel he's making an impact, even in Gore's remarks today. I felt it especially when Gore was talking about Kerry's strategy in Iraq. Once Kerry is in office then he will decide how to proceed. He needn't tip his hat yet and he doesn't have the info he needs. I found that hopeful. Of course it could have been simple pandering but Gore was persuasive.
I'm so glad the media is paying some attention!
