The Politics of Eating

I heard a radio interview with organizers for the Dennis Kucinich presidential campaign. They were in Iowa and trying to get a vegan meal for their candidate. Kucinich is a vegan. I don't eat meat but I'm not a vegan. Even if I was, I wouldn't decide to vote for a candidate solely on one fact. I will admit, however, that Bob Dole's statement that he wanted to be "the first Bob president" was tempting.

Note: I'm not endorsing or disclaiming Kucinich. I just thought that this was an interesting factoid.
