On May 4, Elizabeth Harper walked with her boss into Dennis Kucinich's Capitol Hill office for a meeting and immediately noticed three things. In the reception area, she saw a visiting nun in white robes. In his inner office sat a shelf bearing an illustration depicting "light consciousness" and a bust of Gandhi.

She grew up in the 1980s in the tiny English village of North Ockendon, in a cottage where Pea Lane meets Dennis Lane. At Maytree Cottage, she planted flowers, listened to her mother read stories by the wood stove in the winter, and with her younger sister tended stray animals.

Several hours later, Elizabeth went shopping before leaving for New Mexico. She bought an opal ring - her birthstone. For reasons she can't explain, she decided to call it her "Dennis ring."

"Mum, you'll never guess who I'm having lunch with - Shirley MacLaine!" Elizabeth put the actress on the phone.
Julia Massey had read MacLaine's memoir, "Out on a Limb." After reading that book in the 1980s, Massey, who had worked as a secretary in London, decided to train to become a healer. She learned how to provide alternative therapies like massage and aromatherapy to clients with health problems. Eventually, she built a healing center called The Sanctuary next to the family cottage.

Elizabeth's mother was a bit concerned about her daughter's plan. An American politician? In England, people mostly hear about America's conservative political figures. She couldn't imagine Elizabeth with such a man.

Elizabeth says. "And it's not like I'm some ditsy young thing and he's an old fogey. He has the wisdom of an ancient and the energy of youth."

I especially like the tending stray animals and aromatherapy parts.
It's all a hoot.
Sounds like someone is stuck on stupid.
What did ancients do to deserve that kind of slander?
Translation: "He hates America as much as we do, Mum."
In which life?
He discovered he had a hand and immediatly found love.
"One must love stupidity, as I do, and be stimulated by it, as I am, in order to run after young girls, who are infinitely the stupidest creatures in the world."
He makes Dukakis look Arnold-esque, and Alan Alda sound like Patton.
Couldn't you have posted it all, or at least not posted all those annoying "snips?"
LOLOLOLOLOLOL.
The title alone is enough to make a person gag.
It's eight pages long. Sorry if it annoyed.
Here I thought it would be something simple, like dragging a $20 through a trailer park. ;^)
"Denny had a net worth of under $40,000."
I read somewhere during the election, except a short-lived stint at a radio station, Kucinich has never earned a dime that didn't come from some government entity.
