Dennis Talks About Setting a New Direction for the Democratic Party

Kucinich spoke Saturday at the Rainbow/PUSH Coalition meeting in Chicago, receiving a warm introduction from former Democratic presidential candidate Reverend Jesse Jackson. In a speech that brought the crowd to its feet, Kucinich said: "While the nominee for the upcoming election may be a foregone conclusion, what we stand for as the Democratic Party is not a foregone conclusion. We must be the party that stands for peace, for health care, for voting rights, and for social and economic justice." [See video and transcript of the speech]

MIKE PRING: YOU ARE MISSED



Late Friday night on his way home from closing the California campaign office in Corte Madera, campaign worker Mike Pring was fatally injured in a highway accident. Many in the campaign knew Mike and we are devastated by his loss. Responsible for Northern California campaign technology, Mike also had a passion for field organizing. Most of all, Mike just wanted the world to work. He trusted and operated from his heart with a gracious and compassionate spirit.
