"Ohio Is Expecting!"

Four-term Ohio Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich said today, "Ohio, the mother of Presidents is expecting again," alluding to the long list of Presidents who claimed Ohio as their birthplace, including James Garfield, Ulysses S. Grant, Warren Harding, Benjamin Harrison, William Henry Harrison, Rutherford B. Hayes, William McKinley, and William Howard Taft. Kucinich who is campaigning in Wisconsin, will move on to Ohio seeking the support of voters in his home state to end the 139-year Presidential infertility of the once-rich Presidential state.
Though Congressman Kucinich has received less than 1% of the news coverage of the candidates seeking the Democratic nomination, he is still campaigning non-stop in Wisconsin as their primary approaches, and has a full schedule planned for the rest of the month where he will campaign in the states with Super Tuesday primaries.
Kucinich has stayed in the race by raising funds from individuals, avoiding large donations from special interests. "Small donors committed to changing the Democratic nominating process are keeping me in the campaign," says Kucinich who has raised nearly 9 million dollars in his bid for the Presidency. "Average Americans want the issues of job creation, ending NAFTA and the WTO, protecting their rights and their wages to be given a voice in this campaign." Kucinich has promised his first act as President would be to repeal the trade treaties which have cost American millions of jobs and hurt the wages and benefits paid to America. "NAFTA and the WTO represent a race to the bottom for this nation's workers" Kucinich told reporters and supporters on this President's Day.
