As a FReeper Researcher, I have just come across a JAPANESE organization, based on an overseas JAPANESE website, in JAPANESE, that is encouraging foreigners to contribute money to and assist the "Campaign for American President Dennis Kucinich".
The URL of the activity was located at:
http://www.peace2001.org/
The organization is called "Global Peace Campaign" located in Japan. It is part of an umbrella of socialist and communist organizations opposing US efforts in Iraq, it supports North Korea, and is aligned with the usual communist movements.
The website has the invitation clearly written in Japanese, on the upper left side of the page, along with a link to the Kucinich campaign in the US, and a photo of the candidate. The organizers specifically solicit 500 Kucinich campaign contributors in Japan as a goal. Below are the comments in Japanese, translated by myself.
TOPICS: Breaking News; Crime/Corruption; Foreign Affairs; Front Page News; Government; Japan; News/Current Events; Politics/Elections; US: Ohio
KEYWORDS: 2004; 2004election; antiamerican; antiamericanism; antibush; campaign; campaignfinance; censureandmoveon; cfr; chinagate; clintonlegacy; contributions; corruption; crime; crookedpolitician; democrats; dnc; dncscandals; donations; election2004; electionfraud; electionlaw; electionlaws; elections; fec; feclaws; financereform; foreign; foreigndonations; funnymoney; government; hesacrook; illegal; illegalcontributions; japan; japanesecontribution; japangate; kucinich; liberal; nonamericans; pac; president; rats; rattricks; unamerican; votefraud

Notary schmotary. We need an investigation NOW.
If the FEC wants to drag their damned feet and their pointy headed bureaucrats want to talk nonsense on the phone to concerned American citizens, time to go around them and blast this full force in the US media (Washington Times, TV networks) and the Japanese TV and dailies. Then, the flood of worldwide interest ought to be enough to light a match to their ass.

Notary schmotary. We need an investigation NOW.I just called the Republican National Committee's legal office. I'm waiting for a callback to see if they're interested (the person I needed to speak to was on another line). Next call is to the Washington Times.
To: AmericanInTokyo
Seems to me they want the public to investigate their claims and they just prosecute it.
Its absurd.
let me see what I can do about compiling it and making a timeline.
To: mabelkitty
Excellent thought. I just tested your theory and tried to do a whois on www.ngo.org.
That is blocked too.

How many of us CAN print it?I dunno about Windows, but Mac users can read, type and print Japanese as easily as English (assuming you know any Japanese, anyway). I'm almost certain Windows is capable of handling Japanese, though you may need to specially install some sort of goofy Microsoft "service pack" or something.

You can install japanese characters from Explorer, right off of the web, I believe, and it might only take 3-4 minutes. Once you have that, you can read it, but you are only half way there, your printer needs to have Japanese font/driver installed. I will move ASAP here to move to a unit I already have that has a connection to a Japanese font printer, and I will print out as many of these pages as I can. I'll bet by tomorrow this time they will have taken down that Kucinich money-laundering site in Japan. We have bought some time because it is middle of the night there right now so they obviously cannot alert the Japanese webmaster to clean their site.

Notary schmotary. We need an investigation NOW.For the record, when I called the OIG, the guy said he would forward all the data to the General Counsel's office along with my name and phone #. I would hope that at the least, someone in the Counsel's office would, if they really had to, call me back and just say "Yes, this looks bad, but you gotta write it up and yadda yadda..." That hasn't happened yet. So maybe they can at least do a LITTLE investigating of their own...?

MS Windows prompts for the "Service Packs" disk for a plug in or something.
I don't have a disk that says it is a 'service pack'. I tried using one of my orginal disk installs...nothing.

2 Enforcement proceedings originate in other ways as well. For example, other federal agencies sometimes refer an enforcement matter to the Commission; and the Commission, itself, may initiate enforcement proceedings based on information gathered in the normal course of its supervisory functions such as reviewing reports or conducting field audits. In addition, a matter may enter the enforcement process through a sua sponte letter, that is, a letter sent by an entity who violates the law and notifies the Commission of the facts of the violation. In some cases, filing sua sponte may serve as a mitigating circumstance when the Commission considers the matter. You can call the FBI according to this excerpt, and they will investigate and forward the results to the FEC. Thats the tactic I recommend.

I called the Washington Times. They said they'd "take a look at it" (meaning this thread).

What do they do? Are they connected to the nefarious orgs we already mentioned?
I sent this to local party headquarters, as well. They've got the cash to push it.

Yup. Do as I say, not as I do.
