Democratic presidential candidate Mike Gravel claims to fully support the impeachment of Vice President Cheney and President Bush.
«There is a lot of very good news that makes me tremendously hopeful that we as a nation are starting to wake up and insist our congressional representatives act to make impeachment happen now,» Gravel wrote on his presidential website Friday.
The former Alaskan Senator is an outspoken advocate of impeaching Bush and Cheney over the lies they have told the American nation in support of their go-to-war policies.
«I want to very clearly and emphatically affirm the imperative of Impeachment as the Presidential Campaign begins to move into high gear and as the media is busy anointing the ‘front runners’,» the 77-year-old Democrat continued.
Gravel stressed that without impeachment, the message of presidential candidates will become ‘another empty campaign promise and another sad political fantast’.
Earlier this week on Jan 23, congressman Dennis Kucinich announced his plan to introduce articles of impeachment against President Bush.
