On October 13 to 15, Congressman Dennis John Kucinich will formally announce his campaign for the presidency at events in 11 states. An additional banquet has been added on the 16th in Washington, D.C.

The first announcement will be made at noon on the 13th in Cleveland City Council Chambers in Cleveland, Ohio. A reception will be held from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. in Cleveland in the Ballroom of the Sheraton Hotel.

Congressman Kucinich will depart at 1:50 p.m., and hold events in Detroit, Mich.; Manchester, N.H.; and Madison, Wis.; before flying to Albuquerque, N.M., on the evening of the 13th. On October 14, Congressman Kucinich will speak at rallies in Albuquerque, N.M.; Austin, Texas; Oklahoma City, Okla.; Minneapolis, Minn.; and Chicago, Ill.; before flying to St. Louis, Mo. On October 15, Kucinich will speak at events in St. Louis, Mo.; and Des Moines, Iowa.

Congressman Kucinich will make this trip on a private plane, and a limited number of seats are available for the media, but reservations must be made by October 10.

Crowds of supporters will greet Kucinich at every stop. “Dharma & Greg” star Mimi Kennedy will be at all but one of the events. In Chicago, author Studs Terkel will speak; his article “Kucinich is the One,” in The Nation, May 6, 2002, first brought Kucinich to the attention of many supporters of the campaign. In Albuquerque, New Mexico state officials will offer their endorsements and former Green Party gubernatorial candidate David Bacon will join other Greens in “crossing the Green line” to register as Democrats in order to support Rep. Kucinich in winning the Democratic nomination. In Austin, musician Ani DiFranco and comedian Swami Beyondananda will lend their support.

Also on October 13 to 15, Kucinich supporters all over the country will hold house parties to raise funds for the campaign. Building on the success of the house party fundraisers held on the September 21st International Day of Peace, supporters will celebrate the Presidential Campaign Announcement Tour with a new round of parties. Houses decorated with red, white, and blue balloons and banners will host enthusiastic Kucitizens in towns and cities across the country.

HEH HEH! Aren't you all excited about this? HMMMM?

[Tijeras_Slim]

I had the "privilege" of seeing him destroy Cleveland in the late 70's (fortunately from a distance, but close enough).

[areafiftyone]

Ouch! I don't even see why he is doing this. His poll numbers are horrible.

This borderline communist whacko is in the field merely to make the realistic candidates look more sane in comparison.

That guy is an alien...he has no whites in his eyes. Very creepy.

I'm glad I live in a Southwest suburb, well upwind from this Socialist egomaniac. What a troll this guy is. If there's a white male counterpart to Maxine Waters, this guy is it.

[NormsRevenge]

At least this gives the folks at ANSWER more options in the demRatic primary. Now they have a broader selection of commies, socialists and egomaniacs to pick from.

Aren't these announcements kinda pathetic?

[Brilliant]

You mean he did not know he was running until now?

[My2Cents]

He's already outlasted Bob Graham.

[SwinneySwitch]

Dennis the Menses takes three days to announce!

[jmaroneps37]

Did he sing it in Spanish?

[Lucky2]

I think your post just disgraced the face and memory of Moe Howard. Kucinich sounded like a brain dead, drugged out idiot from the 60's. Moe was at least coherent!

[areafiftyone]

Sorry Moe!
