RE: [Marxism] Kucinich takes a more nuanced position?

["Walter Lippmann" <walterlx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Brian Shannon submits two quotes from the Kucinich
campaign. Presumably sending this material to the
Marxism list is designed to expose something wrong
with what Kucinich's campaign is saying or doing,
but Shannon doesn't explain what his objection to
this material is. Not being a mind-reader, there's
no way to figure out what the issue is to discuss.
I've reposted Shannon's posting because I haven't
a clue what Shannon wants the list to discuss.


Walter Lippmann
===========================================

BRIAN SHANNON SENDS:
FROM THE KUCINICH E-MAIL NEWSLETTER:
(1)The Democratic Party leadership seems to be feeling the
pull. In the last week, presumptive nominee John Kerry has
made more and more statements advocating internationalizing
the Iraq effort, calling for the US-led Coalition
Provisional Authority to hand over responsibility for
reconstruction and establishing a new government to "a
legitimate international entity." [quotes in original]

(2)[Sign our petition to 
"Bring the U.N. in and get the U.S. out":
http://www.kucinich.us/petition_iraq1.php
Tell the Democratic Party:
We Want U.S. Troops out of Iraq    
Petitions since March 25: 840   

I, the undersigned, approve these policies to increase U.S.
security at home and abroad:

* UN to rotate peacekeeping troops into Iraq, allowing all
U.S. troops to return home

* U.S. to renounce any plans to privatize Iraq

* UN to manage the oil assets of Iraq until the Iraqi
people are self-governing

* UN to handle all contracts, and award them under
transparent conditions

* UN to handle the transition to Iraqi self-governance

* UN to help the Iraqi people develop a Constitution

* UN to assist the Iraqi people in holding free and fair
elections

* U.S. to contribute financially to UN peacekeeping
mission, reconstruction, and reparations

* U.S. to abandon policies of "preemption" and
unilateralism and commit to strengthening the UN

I urge Democrats to make this resolution a plank in the
2004 party platform.
