Your Call 112107 On the Record: Representative Dennis Kucinich

What does Congressman Dennis Kucinich's long voting record tell us about what kind of president he would make? On the next Your Call, we continue our On the Record series where we move beyond the stump speeches and rhetoric and instead focus on candidates’ voting records. What does Congressman Kucinich go to bat for? Who funds his campaigns and why do Cleveland voters keep sending him back to Capitol Hill? What do you want to know about Dennis Kucinich? It’s Your Call with me, Rose Aguilar, and you.
