2007 Iowa Brown & Black Presidential Forum: on Government Reform


Dennis Kucinich: 14th and 15th Amendment are being shredded

I carry a copy of the constitution with me, which is very relevant to this audience, because in the 14th amendment it talks about the guarantee of due process and equal protection of the law; in the 15th amendment not denying the right to vote based on race & color. But you know what our constitution is being shredded. We’re losing our country to lies. To war based on lies. And to debt. This is one of the reasons why I’ve introduced articles of impeachment to call this administration accountable.
