Hi Everyone, this is Dennis. I'm on the road right now. In the last couple of days we've been all over the State of Illinois. We started off in Chicago, and went to Aurora, and we've been through Rockford, and Galesburg, and now Peoria, and we're making our way across the state in preparation for the primary coming up on Tuesday. I want you to know that the commitment of this campaign is as steadfast as ever. And while it may seem that the nomination process is pretty much a foregone conclusion, what the Democratic party stands for is not. And so we're continuing our efforts to press for a new approach in Iraq, where we can bring in U.N. peacekeepers and bring our troops home. To press for a universal, single-payer, not-for-profit health care system, and to finally get the Democratic party to take a strong position for fair trade, which will mean the end of NAFTA and the WTO.
This campaign is moving forward because we realize the hopes and dreams of so many Americans for a new direction rest on a continuing debate, and we're going to provide that debate. I want to thank each and every one of you for all of the efforts that you've made, for the continued effort you're making on the ground and in the campaign states ahead, and for the effort that you've been making in helping to raise the funds that sustain our campaign. We're moving ahead with all due speed, and all due courage, and with all due respect for Senator Kerry and his campaign. Because in the end, when all is said and done, if the Democrats are going to win the White House it must be because we stand for something, and it is this campaign which will help the Democratic party take a stand. Thank you very much. I look forward to hearing from all of you, and I'm back on the road.
"While the nomination may be a foregone conclusion, what we stand for as a Democratic Party is NOT a foregone conclusion," Kucinich said in a highly charged speech at the Rainbow-PUSH weekly forum in Chicago yesterday. He was introduced by Jesse Jackson at the forum. Kucinich will be campaigning in Illinois tomorrow as well for their primary.
