Elizabeth Kucinich, his wife, works for the American Monetary Institute.

From the AMI website:

The American Monetary Institute (AMI) is a publicly supported charity, founded in 1996 to present the results of our research in a manner understandable by the average citizen; leading to monetary reforms which bring forth a greater level of economic justice and a more equitable and efficient functioning of government.

This field deserves serious study because while attention is usually focused on the elections of presidents, prime ministers, and representatives, the real outcomes in society - whether there will be general economic justice or special financial privileges for the few - are often quietly determined behind the scenes by the structure of a society’s monetary system.

http://www.monetary.org/

In one AMI report it states:

First, incorporate the Federal Reserve System into the U.S. Treasury where all new money is created by government as money, not interest-bearing debt, and spent into circulation to promote the general welfare; monitored to be neither inflationary nor deflationary.

Second, halt the banks privilege to create money by ending the fractional reserve system in a gentle and elegant way. All the past monetized private credit is converted into U.S. government money. Banks then act as intermediaries accepting savings deposits and loaning them out to borrowers; what people think they do now.

Third, spend new money into circulation on infrastructure, including education and healthcare needed for a growing society, starting with the $1.6 trillion that the American Society of Civil Engineers estimate is needed for infrastructure repair; creating good jobs across our nation, re-invigorating local economies and re-funding government at all levels.

The false specter of inflation is usually raised against such suggestions that our government fulfill its responsibility to furnish the nation’s money supply. But that is a knee jerk reaction - the result of decades, even centuries of propaganda against government. When one actually examines the monetary record, it becomes clear that government has a superior record issuing and controlling money than the private issuers have.* Inflation is avoided because real material wealth has been created in the process.

Elizabeth works with Stephen Zarlenga, author of “The Lost Science of Money”, here is a excerpt from the book:

“The thesis of this book is that a main arena of human struggle is over the monetary control of societies and that this control has been and is now exercised through obscure theories about the nature of money. If it had to be summarized in one sentence, it is that by misdefining the nature of money, special interests have often been able to assume the control of society’s monetary system, and in turn, the society itself. Describing how this has been done historically will make these concepts vital, and hopefully seep aside the mystification in which money has been purposely shrouded. Guidelines for monetary reform are then presented, to end the private control of monetary systems and instead assert the public societal role to control money under the rule of law, rather than the whims of men” (p. 3).

Don’t let Big Media choose who will best represent us as a nation, choose the candidate that best supports you.

Note to Ron Paul supporters: I know the Federal Reserve is very important to you all, as it should be for everyone. I want to let you know you have a natural ally with Dennis Kucinich. Lets hope for a general election between these two honorable men and then let the people decide.

Every year, a quarter of a million children die in Africa, simply because they can’t afford to see a doctor or a nurse. Save the Children UK is campaigning for free healthcare for the world’s poorest children. The lives of hundreds of thousands of children in Africa could be saved each year by abolishing fees for healthcare. What’s more, it would cost relatively little.

Save the Children UK estimates that the lives of 285,000 children in Africa could be saved every year by abolishing healthcare fees. Thousands more children would lead healthier lives without healthcare fees pushing their families into poverty.
