Elizabeth Kucinich talks about the Prison Systems

Sunday November 11, 2007 Elizabeth Kucinich arrived in Denver to attend the Colorado for Kucinich fundraiser brunch held at the Mercury Café. The Mercury Café is one of Denver's alternative hotspots and has led the way in greening Denver by installing solar panels and wind turbines. The Mercury has been sponsoring bio diesel support groups, and owner Marilyn McGinnity is a great supporter of the Kucinich campaign.
The turn out was large and Kucinich was well received. Colorado4Kucinch organizers stressed the need to get Kucinich supporters out to the precinct caucus process which is held on February 5, 2008. Colorado does not hold a presidential preference primary. Campaign organizers urged members of the audience to remind their friends that December 5, 2007 is the deadline for registering to vote as a Democrat in order to be eligible to participate in the Democratic caucus process.
Paige Tompson introduced Elizabeth Kucinich who took the stage and gave a brief talk about the campaign and some key issues before saying she really wanted to hear from the audience, and answer any questions they may have about issues or the campaign.

Poverty and the war on drugs have devastated the working class communities in this country.

Vote Kucinich, he is the only one with actual policies to solve real problems.

Prisons already train people. My father works in the prison system. Sadly Society is formulated to shovel poor and middle class people into holes such as ghettos and the prison system. Fuck the War! the war on drugs - war on terror - war on middle class - war on my DICK!. Lets get a healer

I think that education at an early age on the difference between right and wrong and teaching good morals and emotional intelligence is a good idea for children. people in the prison systems know that they broke the law, they are a lost cause. working for the department of justice, i can tell you that 89% of ex criminals are repeat offenders, and we do offer education programs, they just choose to not attend and instead commit more crime..my honest opinion, a bullet is cheaper than a jail cell.

When it became clear that even in America, slavery and constitutional misogyny really weren't on, and the rich white guys running the show had to concede universal suffrage.

Of course, they found ways to make sure everyone would still vote of rich white guys.

I'm with Kucinich. He may be a white guy, but he ain't especially rich, and he puts the ordinary man and woman first (i.e. what democracy is supposed to be about).
