If I'm not mistaken wasn't that his big ticket into modern politics? I mean he defaulted the loans because he refused to sell the public power district to a private company with tons of bank execs on the board because he didn't want to create a monopoly. Now, that company ended up saving people in Cleveland almost 200 million over the company that wanted to buy it out, plus in recent years has spread coverage to other areas of Ohio because it was so successful. If I'm not mistaken that was his entire campaign back in the late 90s, complete with little light bulb shaped buttons that said "Vote Kucinich... Because I was Right!"
