at a Democratic National Committee-sponsored unity event this Thursday, the
last remaining challenger, Congressman Dennis Kucinich, will continue to actively
campaign. He wrote the following letter:
"Dear Democratic Colleagues,
"I congratulate Senator Kerry for his excellent showing in the primaries

of the Democratic Party remains to be determined. I look forward to being part
of that process." [Read entire

Millions of voters remain to be heard from
March 25, 2004
With Democratic primaries and caucuses still ahead in 16 states and U.S. territories,
millions of voters still have a chance to influence the direction of the Democratic
Party, Presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich said today.
"Even though the nomination may be decided, why should millions of Democrats
in these sixteen voting areas be denied a chance to affect the direction of
our party?" Kucinich said. Voters still have "sixteen chances to register your
concerns about peace, about universal health care, about the Patriot Act, about
our trade policies which are costing us millions of jobs while diminishing workers
rights and environmental protections everywhere." [Read

Act
March 24, 2004
Ohio Congressman and Democratic Presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich today
congratulated the Maine Legislature for voting yesterday to ask Congress to
reconsider the controversial law known as the Patriot Act.

for adding their voices to those of leaders in Alaska, Hawaii and Vermont, as
well as millions of other citizens who see the dangers that this law poses to
our basic American freedoms,” Kucinich said. He said he hopes Maine's action
sends a message to the Democratic Party, potential Party nominee Sen. John Kerry,
who voted for the Patriot Act in 2001, and all other members of the U.S. Congress.

Kucinich: Disclosure that Administration manufactured crisis
to invade Iraq no surprise
March 22, 2004
Disclosures yesterday and today by former Bush Administration counter-terrorism
advisor Richard A. Clarke that the President and his team were intent on invading
Iraq and deposing Saddam Hussein come as no surprise, said Congressman and Democratic
presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich.
In an interview on CBS's "60 Minutes" last night and in a book being released
today, Clarke said Bush and his top military and foreign policy advisors seemed
intent on linking 9/11 to Hussein as a justification for an invasion. "The crisis
was manufactured," Clarke writes in his book, "Against All Enemies." The new revelations
by Clarke "make it clear that the Administration 'cooked the books' to win
Congressional support for the Iraqi war resolution," Kucinich said.
