Loving Dennis: You Mean It's Not Just Me?

All through childhood, they swore it was possible: A woman for president! A man of color leading our great nation! Yet for decades, nothing but one straight Jesus-loving white guy after the next, waiting for his turn in the White House.

 
Now, suddenly, the Democratic party is a gluttonous feast for those raised on the "Free to Be You and Me" ideas buffet. And yet ... yet ... somehow, you find the one person who is telling you what you want to hear most is some short, straight, white guy who doesn't eat meat and claims to have seen a UFO. Not that you'd actually admit it or anything. Not that you actually expect him to get elected.

 
Looks like you're not alone. Kucinich love is in the air.

 
Oh, you'd never vote for him. He's the charming geek you like "as a friend." Still. Why couldn't THEY be more like HIM? Huh?
