Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) says he would consider putting the liberal congressman Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio) in his Cabinet if he were to win the presidency in 2012.
Paul said his libertarian political philosophy helps him connect with some on the far left — including Kucinich, who shares Paul’s general anti-war stance.
Paul joked that if he brought the Ohio congressman aboard in his administration, he might have to create a “Department of Peace.”

“You’ve got to give credit to people who think,” he said.

Ron, if you make Dennis your Vice-President and agree to let him create a Department of Peace, i’ll vote for you both in the 2012 election. I promise.
Sounds great, except Kucinich is a COMMUNIST!!!
The article continiues:
“Paul spokesmen Jesse Benton later said the remark was a joke, and said Kucinich is too ideologically different from Paul to be a candidate for a Cabinet spot.
“Ron works with Dennis on some coalition issues, and respects him as a thinker, but was joking and would not consider him for Cabinet position. He made clear he did not want to name Cabinet officials,” Benton said.”
Ah-hah. Looks like TheHill.com was trying to inflict some bad publicity on Paul with its headline.
Strange bc Dennis voted against Paul’s audit after cosponsoring, voted for Obamacare, voted for the Serve America act, and voted FOR legislation Ron Paul said would legalize the current war action in Libya (see link)
“http://www.govtrack.us/congress/vote.xpd?vote=h2011-494″ If you click my name link, Ron Paul explains this this bill actually authorizes war.
No one in congress raised a finger to impeach Obama for illegal war.
Boooooo! Kucinich sucks.
Right wing, Left wing, Parakeet wing.
honesty compassion intelligence guts
Wondering if any of them will finally make Obama face the disgrace of impeachment when he unilaterally attacks the next country or if they will have already given the executive branch unilateral authority to declare war.
