   Would be a coup for the Green Party. I could see him pulling Gary Johnson numbers.

   Kucinich does have some good opinions. I’d hate to see him retire.

   I wrestle with Green or Libertarian….. reality, whoever can bring Liberty…. but Kucinich would make me rethink Green Party.

   I’d like to see a Paul/Kucinich ticket. That ought to make the establishment shake.

   DOLL–I assume you mean Ron Paul?

   This is old.

   Doesn’t he work for Fox now?

   Youtube says it was posted in November.

   Jill @ 2 – Dennis Kucinich is already out of Congress – he lost his seat in 2012 after new districts were drawn.
8. Sam Kress May 8, 2013 at 19:31

   That doesn’t mean he’s completely retired though. Many ex-congresspeople are news commentators, talk show hosts, book authors, paid speakers and so on.

   I know that Kucinich lost his seat in Congress. As far as the video being old, I don’t think six months old makes it invalid. I think the Green Party might do well with him as their candidate, if he’s interested.

    I think they have tried to recruit him before and failed. Maybe he’ll change his mind now.
11. mARS May 9, 2013 at 13:28

    I think he should jump in. It would be quite interesting to watch.

    Is Kucinich still pro-life? If so, I don’t think that would fly in the Green Party.
13. Catholic Trotskyist May 9, 2013 at 17:07

    No he’s not still pro-life, sadly.

    Kucinich just became a member of the Board of Directors of some new Ron Paul save the republic money making scheme for homeschooling or some such BS. Perhaps it is a new chapter of Losers Anonymous. They will die wealthy.
15. Jill Pyeatt Post authorMay 9, 2013 at 19:26

    What’s wrong with making money? And what’s wrong with a program for home schooling?
16. paulie May 9, 2013 at 19:29

    Kucinich is on the board of the Ron Paul Institute for Peace

    The main reason I like Kucinich is his anti-war efforts.
18. paulie May 9, 2013 at 19:51

    Kucinich does not appear to be involved with http://www.ronpaulcurriculum.com/ however.
19. Jill Pyeatt Post authorMay 9, 2013 at 20:09

    I’m still curious why Jack thinks Kucinich being involved with a “save the republic money making scheme for homeschooling or some such BS” is a bad thing. It certainly doesn’t seem like a bad thing to me (although it doesn’t seem that he’s involved with it after all).

    He will never leave the democrats.

    Everyone (including me) ripped Rand Paul for endorsing Romney, and rightfully so. It showed a serious lack of integrity. Having said that, how is Kucinich any better, given that he endorsed Obama in ’08?
22. Todd Maxwell May 10, 2013 at 07:59

    I don’t think expectations were as high of Kucinich. Rand Paul had the burden and privilege of his family name. Otherwise not much different.
