Kucinich on Obama: "Where is he?"

Rep. Dennis Kucinich spoke with The UpTake after a forum for worker's rights in Madison, Wisconsin. Asked about President Obama's absence in Madison, Kucinich said: "He should be here. Where is he? He made a statement that he's standing behind the workers - he should be standing in front of them. He's the President. Lead. Show people you're dedicated to worker's rights." Filmed at the Barrymore Theater in Madison, Wisconsin on 3/12/11.Interview by Jacob Wheeler for The UpTake.

Kucinich has attracted attention for consistently delivering "the strongest liberal" perspective.perspective and his actions, such as bringing articles of impeachment against President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney, and being the only Democratic candidate in the 2008 election to have voted against invading Iraq has often been in sharp contrast to the more moderate tone the Democratic Party has often adopted.Shame on my vote to OB!

Obama has sold us out. I despise this kind of betrayal. When a real leader and moral man like Kucinich does not have a chance in presidential politics, then that spells the end of our country. Sad days to see and to live in . What a disappointment and knucklehead Obama is.

Besides Bush, Dick Cheney, lets Toss in Donald Rumsfeld, Alan Greenspan, E. Rockefeller and any one else who has amassed increadable wealth from war profiteering!~

Freedom includes economic freedom, what is the point of going to court if you cannot afford a lawyer? Court appointed lawyers are a joke!
