===Abortion===
Kucinich's position on abortion has been somewhat of a “flip-flop.” During Kucinich's first three terms at congress he compiled a consistently pro-life record; this earned him a 95-percent approval rating from the [[National Right to Life Committee]] in 2000. Kucinich stated that he believed that “life begins at conception.”<ref name="Enrich">{{cite web |last1=Enrich |first1=David |url=https://www.nationalreview.com/article/205977/kucinichs-choice-david-enrich |title=Kucinich’s Choice |work=[[National Review]] |date=February 20, 2003 }}</ref> However, in 2003, he changed his position, stating that he was “pro-choice” and  promised before an Iowa campaign crowed in 2003, "as president, I would protect that right [to abortion], and I would also make sure that appointees to the [[Supreme Court]] protected that right."<ref name="Enrich" /> The President of the National Abortion Rights Action League, [[Kate Michelman]], stated that, “[Kucinich] understands that this [abortion] is a fundamental freedom. Do I think that's sincere? Yes I do." His support of abortion seems to correspond directly with the amount of campaign funding he gets from the abortion lobby.
