I can see Kucinich running against Obama in 2012 primaries if:
* we still have troops in Iraq
* we're bogged down in Afghanistan
* health care reform leaves substantial #s still uninsured
* DADT and DOMA are still the law of the land
* cap & trade makes no substantial improvement in carbon emissions
* unemployment is still above 6 or 7%
