Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich is questioning the mental health of George Bush concerning his statements on Iran. Finally a national figure is saying out loud what many are thinking privately. However, it's not just Bush's stance on Iran that makes wonder if he should be examined, but nearly everything the man says.
"I seriously believe we have to start asking questions about his mental health," Kucinich, an Ohio congressman, said in an interview with The Philadelphia Inquirer's editorial board on Tuesday. "There's something wrong. He does not seem to understand his words have real impact."
Kucinich, known for his liberal views, trails far behind the leading candidates in most Democratic polls. He was in Philadelphia for a debate at Drexel University.
Bush made the remarks at a news conference earlier this month.
He said: "I've told people that if you're interested in avoiding World War III, it seems like you ought to be interested in preventing them (Iran) from having the knowledge necessary to make a nuclear weapon."
