Presidential Auction 2004

You know, Dennis Kucinich actually exists. And he is actually a candidate for president in 2004.

Really.

Here's the basics of his plan for Iraq.

Transfer control of Iraqi oil assets to the United Nations until Iraq is self-governing.

Hand contracts to the U.N. until Iraq achieves self-governance, so there will be no more Halliburton-type sweetheart deals or war profiteering, and Iraqis can get jobs.

Obey the Geneva and Hague conventions, stop privatizing Iraq's economy, and return the Iraqi people's national wealth.

Rebuild what the U.S. military destroyed, and compensate families of innocent civilians who lost their lives in the war.

Help fund a U.N. peacekeeping mission until Iraq is self-governing. When U.N. peacekeepers rotate in, U.S. troops will rotate out.
