Hon. Dennis Kucinich talks about his run for congress as an Independent, and about his long relationship with the LGBTQ community

Our guest is Hon. Dennis Kucinich, making his first Gaywaves appearance. Kucinich has been an ally of LGBTQ people long before it was cool, even for Democrats. He is the first candidate who made marriage equality a platform plank in a national election, even while others ran from it (2004 presidential campaign when he was the last challenger standing to the eventual nominee).

 

 

Kucinich, an 8-term congressman, is coming out of what could be a comfortable retirement to run for congress in Ohio's newly drawn 7th District as an Independent. He covers a lot of ground in this interview, and it is insightful.
