DENVER -- John Kerry may have effectively wrapped up the Democratic presidential nomination, but Dennis Kucinich hasn't stopped campaigning.

He arrived at Denver International Airport Thursday morning to several dozen supporters.

He said he knows he won't win a place on the ballot, but by voting for him, Colorado Democrats will tell Kerry what issues are important to them.

"Everyone knows the direction of the nomination was decided in Iowa and New Hampshire. People in Colorado are going to help decide the direction of the Democratic Party," Kucinich said.

Colorado voters will get a chance to let their voices be heard in party caucuses next Tuesday.
