Re: [A-List] re Dennis Kucinich

[Michael Hudson <michael.hudson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I consider Dennis a friend, and I can say that in person he is more
impressive and stronger than on film. Perhaps the TV  cameras use a
wide-angle lens to make him appear more distant. TV is different from in
person.
    He's smart, and sees the big picture. I can't imagine backing any other
Democrat, personally. Best of all, he understands economic rent and
interest, and how the economy is being turned into a rentier society.
