Beyond Super Tuesday: (From the Kucinich Campaign)
Dear Friends,
There comes a moment when we look forward and backward, almost simultaneously, and decide either that everything we believe in is possible - or that our hopes and our dreams are unobtainable. Now is just such a moment.
This is a moment of historic choice in our campaign - a moment where the decisions we make will have effects that ripple forward through generations, decisions that will profoundly affect our lives as individuals, our relationships with other organizations, the future direction of our country, and indeed the future course of the world.
It is the day after Super Tuesday and there is much to report in the Kucinich for President campaign. First and foremost, I want to thank everyone who worked so hard over these many months to bring us to this point in our journey. We are now looking ahead to the remaining states and the Democratic convention in Boston in July, 2004. We must focus on states where Dennis can gain delegates, so that we go to the convention from a position of strength.
This morning the media declared Kerry to be the Democratic nominee. It's been reported that President Bush phoned John Kerry and offered hopes for a spirited debate, and that Kerry is looking for a running mate. That said, we all must remember that in order to be influential and win the election, the Democratic Party must honestly address issues such as single-payer universal health care, jobs, trade, education, the war in Iraq, and the need for a Department of Peace.
Congressman Kucinich has emerged as the voice of the progressive movement in the political debate. His campaign will continue to secure delegates on the way to the convention where, with our ongoing support, he will continue to be that voice. Thus we will focus on the upcoming primary/caucus states, purchase media time, operate a national campaign, and, with your help, make certain that the human values at the heart of this campaign/movement will be at the center of politics in our country.
Together, all of us will ensure that Dennis Kucinich continues to be heard and that the voice of the progressive movement in our country will be part of the transformation of politics and our world. Let us persevere with this vital work to create the world we all envision, the world that exists in our hearts, the world we want to give to our children and our grandchildren.
My heart sings as I contemplate our concerted effort. Our combined chorus of voices will resound through generations as we demonstrate to the world the majesty of our collective vision. Together we will continue to make a difference as we join with others to create a culture of peace with non-violence as the organizing principle.
To move forward in our journey it is absolutely critical that we keep raising money - especially now, while we still qualify for federal matching funds before hitting our March 4th expiration date (checks dated March 4 and funds received over the internet on March 4 will be matched). Please invest in our future - in our children's and our grandchildren's future - by contributing right now on the website (www.kucinich.us) or calling with a contribution (866-413-3664).
We look forward to the possibilities that will emerge as we each play our part in this unfolding evolution of the Democratic Party - and more universally, the human spirit.
In the Spirit of Peace and Cooperation,
Dot
