Kucinich brings his campaign to Eugene
By Greg Bolt
The Register-Guard
Presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich brings his battle for the heart and soul of the Democratic Party to Eugene this weekend, but he's making no bones about his chances of ending up on the party's ticket.
"I have no trouble acknowledging that John Kerry has the number of delegates needed to get the nomination and that the nomination is a fairly settled question," he said from Washington, D.C. "But the direction of the Democratic Party is not a settled question."
Kucinich, a four-term Ohio congressman, is still on the campaign trail because he wants to change that direction by pushing the party back toward what he feels are its progressive roots. He's speaking out strongly against the war in Iraq, calling for affordable health care, pledging to work toward fair trade and seeking restoration of civil liberties by sinking the USA Patriot Act.
He arrived in Oregon on Friday and will hit Eugene on Sunday, sitting for an interview on radio station KLCC at noon and then speaking at Lane Community College in the Center for Meeting and Learning, Rooms 102 to 104 in Building 19.
