Forget the Mormon issue and Mitt Romney. Is America ready for a vegan president? Well, it wasn't ready four years ago when one-time Cleveland boy-mayor Dennis Kucinich ran for the nation's top office, exciting dozens, including Willie Nelson.
But America has a second chance to warm up to Congressman Dennis Kucinich, because he's announcing his 2008 bid for president on the steps of Cleveland's city hall on Tuesday.
Cleveland's reputation has never quite recovered from the disastrous single-term of Kucinich in the 1970s, when it became the first city since the Great Depression to default on bond payments.
I wasn't aware of this, but according to Brainster, Kucinich has a nickname: Frodo.
