Ah, it does my heart good to know there are at least a handful of persons with integrity serving in Congress. Kucinich is MY idea of a patriot !

I agree with ending the Fed, big time !

Thanks, Carole.

The main reason I felt this was important to post was because MSM (mainstream media) has pretty much "blackballed" Dennis Kucinich. (Remember the 35 articles of impeachment that got practically no coverage?)

It's good to know that we still do have representatives in DC who will continue to represent their constituents, protect the Constitution and use their 1 minute of time to say so.

Yes, the Federal Reserve should end asap.

IMO, the banks should not be getting one cent of the bail-out moneys. The banks should not be dictating the "new policy" on credit cards and in other monetary matters.

I'm glad to see that Dennis Kucinich is still a representative in Congress. The pukes ran a nasty smear campaign against him in the 2008 election.

TY, Just "C".

Amen, amen. The federal reserve is as underhanded as GW was. It is time to quit babying the corporate machine and help real people. Thanks for the post.

J-M, bless your heart (you sarcastic patriot). LOL

The "labels" are just a diversionary tactic, promoted by thieves and carpetbaggers, to keep the general public distracted from real issues.

It's so much easier if they make it "us" versus "them." When, in actuality, THEY are the paid co-conspirators, laughing at the general public for buying it, and lining their wallets with money collected from taxes imposed, and self-interest groups.

I adore Dennis Kucinich - he's one of the very few that tells it like it is. Way ahead of his time I bet but at least he's planting seeds. Thanks, Carole, for reminding us that they aren't ALL bad!

Dennis Kucinich has my complete respect and if he has a suggestion then it would be good for the country for it to be listened to. Dennis is a patriot.

Good for Dennis-this is something long, long overdue. In 1963-just before this assassination JFK put bill 11110 into effect: since then there has been no one to come forward with the courage to challenge the Fed.

John F. Kennedy
Executive Order 11110 - Amendment of Executive Order No. 10289 as Amended, Relating to the Performance of Certain Functions Affecting the Department of the Treasury
June 4, 1963

Office of the Federal Register
Office of the Federal Register

By virtue of the authority vested in me by section 301 of title 3 of the United States Code, it is ordered as follows:

SECTION 1. Executive Order No. 10289 of September 19, 1951, as amended, is hereby further amended --

(a) By adding at the end of paragraph 1 thereof the following subparagraph (j):

"(j) The authority vested in the President by paragraph (b) of section 43 of the Act of May 12, 1933, as amended (31 U.S.C. 821 (b)), to issue silver certificates against any silver bullion, silver, or standard silver dollars in the Treasury not then held for redemption of any outstanding silver certificates, to prescribe the denominations of such silver certificates, and to coin standard silver dollars and subsidiary silver currency for their redemption," and

(b) By revoking subparagraphs (b) and (c) of paragraph 2 thereof.

SEC. 2. The amendment made by this Order shall not affect any act done, or any right accruing or accrued or any suit or proceeding had or commenced in any civil or criminal cause prior to the date of this Order but all such liabilities shall continue and may be enforced as if said amendments had not been made.

Dennis is such a good man, I'm surprised he hasn't been killed.

Thank you Carole, I will continue to hope that he is listened to.

Nationalizing the Fed would be a GREAT
first step on the way to getting rid of
the damned thing.
THEN, we need to get our currency back
on gold and silver! That's where the most
critical problem with our currency lies,
it isn't backed up by anything!

Thanks, Carole.

Noted. This is outstanding....I am contacting my Senators and congressman and am sending a letter of appreciation and support to Dennis Kucinich!!!! The Federal Reserve has been an anachorism for a very long time and has damaged the economy far more than it every did anything to help it. You betcha, Tim...our currency is like monopoly money...worthless paper. Thank you, Carole, for this post.

Snippets from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennis_Kucinich

In 2003, Kucinich was the recipient of the Gandhi Peace Award, an annual award bestowed by the Religious Society of Friends-affiliated organization Promoting Enduring Peace.[2]

After Kucinich refused to sell Muni Light, Cleveland's publicly owned electric utility, the Cleveland mafia put out a hit on Kucinich. A hitman from Maryland planned to shoot him in the head during the Columbus Day Parade, but the plot fell apart when Kucinich was hospitalized and missed the event. When the city fell into default shortly thereafter, the mafia leaders called off the contract killer.[15]

NOTED. BLESS YOU, BLESS YOU CAROLE AND JM !!! As a lifelong dem (and no longer proud of it!!), my 2 cents worth is this. Yes, we MUST END THE FED! Also that other private corporation known as the IRS must come to an end. Check out this website: http://endthefed.us/av.php

I providedthe link above because the 3rd song down on the list, "Bankster Bash" by Rebel Moon is my husbands song. He co-wrote it with another musician friend. This link will make it easy to find and hear the song, which I think is great! Steven Vincent, organizer of End The Fed in L.A. liked the song so much, he included it on the website............one can negotiate the entire website from this page........

We think Dennis Kucinich rocks. In our opinion the election should have gone like this: Dennis Kucinich, Ron Paul and Cynthia McKinney should have joined forces and should have made up the current administration..............MSM annihilated the character of each because each was and is a huge threat to those who 'really' rule the world.

We believe "the truth sets us free"..............may we all see this come to fruition!
