In September 2005 Dennis Kucinich introduced legislation to create a Department of Peace and Nonviolence.

So, explain to me why the government funded Institute of Peace, signed into action by Ron Reagan in 1984, is not adequate to the job of peace?

The first formal proposal for the establishment of an official U.S. government peace institution dates to 1792.

And the government still can't seem to do peace.

Hey! I know! Let's create a new governmental body of non-elected officials, and call it the Department of Peace & Policy Mockery at the Public Trough.
