MR. BLITZER: Thank you, Senator.
We're going to go back to Jennifer in a second, but I know Congressman Kucinich wants to weigh in.
MR. GRAVEL: Listen. They've been raiding the Social Security trust funds of $200 million a year, and they're all involved in this. Now, what do they say about it? You balance the budget by raiding the Social Security fund of $200 million a year? And they're doing it now!
MR. BLITZER: Congressman Kucinich, you want to respond to that?
REP. KUCINICH: I do, because we're looking at a process here in Washington that most of the American public isn't aware of. And that is, these interest groups have such a hold on our country that right now they're headed to grab the oil of Iraq using our troops. Right now they're keeping a not-for-profit health-care system in its place. Right now they're keeping NAFTA in its place. I'm talking about a real change here that gives the American people a chance to recover their country totally and by moving away from the interest groups --
MR. BLITZER: All right.
REP. KUCINICH: -- that, unfortunately, support some of my dear friends here.
