The Peace Candidate: Kucinich Vows to Stay in Race

Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich explains why is staying in the race for his party's nomination. He talks about the continuing war in Iraq, the 9-11 commission and Israel's assasination of Sheik Ahmed Yassin in Gaza. Only one presidential candidate attended one of the mass protests marking the one-year anniversary of the beginning of the US invasion of Iraq. It wasn't George W Bush and it wasn't John Kerry. It was Ohio Congressmember Dennis Kucinich. He addressed more than 100, 000 people at the large protest in New York City on Saturday.
