Stephanie Tubbs Jones: A Courageous Democrat (Video)


Stephanie Tubbs Jones was one of the precious few courageous Democrats who stood up for disenfranchised African-American voters after the Republican theft of the 2000 election. She also opposed certifying Bush's re-election of 2004. Stephanie Tubbs Jones is one the brave Democratic souls who appear in Michael Moore’s "Fahrenheit 911,″ which is a timely reminder of how messed up our country is and how we can't blame it all on the Republicans.

If there were more Democrats like Stephanie Tubbs Jones, would Bush really have been in the White House for these eight long miserable years?
