The article focuses the political activism of Cleveland Congressman Dennis Kucinich, and details the authors' conversation with him whom he met for the first time about twenty-four years ago. He told about his family and childhood and how he got into politics at the age of 21 in 1967 and his tenure as a Mayor. According to the author Kucinich is the only one who can win back the blue-collar former U.S. President Ronald Reagan Democrats and it was his voice in the State Senate that caused Ohio to scrap the planned sitting of a nuclear waste dump in the state. He gets things done in no small way because of his understanding of his opponents' humanness as well as his wrongness.
