did you know that dennis kucinich is still campaigning?… but for something a bit different than you might think. i really love this guy:

“In a way, I feel like Johnny Appleseed,” Mr. Kucinich said. “I’m planting seeds all over this country: seeds of peace, seeds of hope. At some point, maybe years from now, there will be orchards. So in a sense, it’s about more than this election. It’s about more than politics. It really is about envisioning a new America.”

it may sound cheesy to you, but that’s only because we’ve grown accustomed to dishonest politicians. this guy, amazingly enough, is sincere. no. really.
