AR-News: (US-az) Kucinich's stance on war in Iraq attracts supporters

[Animalconcerns]

[from Arizona Daily Sun]

Some like Dennis Kucinich for his political platform. Some like him
because he's a vegan. And others seem to like him simply because he's not
Howard Dean or Wesley Clark.

But it's the Democratic presidential candidate's message of peace and
anti-war beliefs that have 10 or so hard-core Kucinich supporters keeping
the faith -- even if their candidate is often labeled unelectable. 
...
Dan Frazier, another Kucinich supporter in Flagstaff, was first drawn to
the candidate for his vegan appetite.

"There are a lot of reasons I agree with him," said Frazier. "But what got
me interested in the first place, it's kind of a silly thing but it's very
personal, is I heard he was a vegan."

Frazier, a vegan for the past 10 years, doesn't eat any animal products,
including meat, dairy and fish.

"It's symbolic of a philosophy and a way of life that has to do with a
concern for the environment, concern for personal health, concern for the
welfare of animals," Frazier said. "It touches on a whole lot of things
that are important to me right there."
