Robert Giuffre (not verified) says:

Kucinich is a true American Hero. I worked for the man in New Hampshire, and he treated me with more respect and dignity than local NY politicians I have served in the past.

I was his Dover field director. At an event he attended, supporters were giving out the wrong campaign lit. The lit was unfairly critical of Obama and Richardson, and he took the time to replace the wrong lit with the right lit.

He asked, "Who is in charge of this event?" I had to raise my hand. He made me go into the back of his campaign bus. He did not bark at me. He did not curse or scream. He simply got to the bottom of the situation, and figured out that his campaign manager and state director did not make it clear that this lit was not to be used. He then ordered me to go to all of the regional offices to ensure that all of the bad lit was removed, and only the good lit remained. He handled the situation with such class and dignity, it stunned me. Maybe this is because I am used to working for animals, but, nevertheless, his calm and collected manner was refreshing to see in politics.

Kucinich is gracious, honest, and brilliant. He has seen tougher battles in his political career, and this won't stop him. The people of Cleveland know where he stands.
