Support President Obama with Health Care Vote

Never have I felt as proud of Dennis Kucinich for his announced support for the health care bill.
My correspondence to him explains why I support his decision.

In the past, I have provided some funding for your campaign (albeit, not that much) because you are one of the few people in Congress who support views I can totally agree with. Granted, they are often nor politically palatable. Nevertheless, you are a great congressman, as noted by your pressing to have a debate on Afghanistan (that was disappointedly not covered much in the press). I too have shared your views on health care. i wanted a single payor system to get rid of the insurance companies. We were in agreement. Given that the bill under consideration does not meet my expectations, i could accept no bill rather than a bad bill that really only "promises" reform rather than demand reform. However, you displayed great wisdom in announcing your support of the bill, not because of the bill itself, but to ensure that the President will be able to continue to try to address multiple issues demanding his leadership. Thank you.
