Kucinich's brother Perry was found dead. In this time of need and after Dennis has been there for Americans all through 2007, it is time for us to be there for him.

Kucinich's brother found dead

My heart goes out to you Dennis as I can only imagine what you are going through.

Once I complete "The Courage to Survive" I will understand fully what your brothers meant to you but so far, after reading the story of how you bought Christmas presents for your siblings, I know that deep in your heart you have a profound affection and compassion for all in your family.

You have been there for Americans since the Iraq war became a possibility tirelessly working to make sure others follow the rule of law. You have been relentlessly following the reckless Bush administration and demanding they stop abusing power and stop grabbing for more power. You have gone above and beyond while also doing the little things we take for granted like putting together articles of impeachment, analyses, and reading legislation like the PATRIOT Act and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act that virtually nobody else read.

You have sought to support policies that will curb poverty, bring health care to all, spread values that promote peace and sustainability, and force people to understand the interconnectedness of our world.

You are a beacon of light that shines brightly.

You have done what every American could hope a politician to do. And now we owe it to you in this time of need to keep you in our hearts and be deeply sympathetic.

You treat us like family and so will we.

So to you from this OpEdNews writer/ardent supporter of your presidential campaign and other OpEdNews writers, my deepest condolences go out to you.
