		Kevin Rudd goes on to argue that the term ‘family values’ is one of the most debased terms in Australian political life, that the argument, ‘Vote for me, I’m a Christian’; is repugnant, and that Christian faith means nothing if it’s not about social action.
		Kevin Rudd: Dietrich Bonhoeffer had guts, he was principled, and those principles were put to the test during probably one of the most awful periods of the century, namely Germany in the 1930s.
		Kevin Rudd: I think what Bonhoeffer does for people who are Christians in politics in every age and in every culture, is to say this: that Christian ethics are a dead letter unless they are translated into real concrete social action in pursuit of social justice.

	Interview: Kevin Rudd

		RUDD: There have been some indications around the British government that there may be some changes in their future troop deployments, of course under Prime Minister Blair there has already been a downsizing of the British troop deployment.

	Trevor Cook: Kevin Rudd
		Rudd's legion of advisers need to convince him that he needs to be more selective in what he does and that goes for his overloaded, wordy and very forgetable speeches too.
		KEVIN Rudd's press secretary Lachlan Harris yesterday declined to say whether he had run through Canberra in the nude to fulfil the terms of a bet.
		Rudd's energy and enthusiasm for media appearances might help overcome the first of these hurdles and he has a point of policy distinction on Iraq and industrial relations; perhaps also on climate change (Kyoto ratification etc) and maybe the education revolution (though this is still pretty undefined as yet).

		Kevin Rudd said he had been staying at the home of fellow Labor MP Graham Edwards and accepted Mr Edwards’ invitation to tag along to the dinner out of politeness and a sense of obligation.
		Kevin Rudd was invited to attending a State Dinner at Government House for the President of the Republic of Korea; instead he sent along (now disgraced) frontbencher Kelvin Thomson, apparently excusing himself by saying he would be working through the night shadow cabinet-making.
		So without any evidence at all, Kevin Rudd maligns the reputation of the surgeons who worked to save his father's life, in order to conceal the fact that his father was a drunken driver, that alcohol abuse was the prime contributor to his father's death, and the source of Kevin's hardships as a child.

	Kevin Rudd's political cowardice - Eureka Street
		On Sunday afternoon, Kevin Rudd confirmed that his official election campaign will be the vanity exercise, the gutless appeal to a shallow and disaffected electorate, that most of us suspected it would be.
		Rudd is clearly convinced that this election is the Coalition’s to lose, and that popular discontent with the government has finally reached critical mass — as it had in 1996, the election that saw Howard defeat Keating.
		Rudd had to craft a winning strategy in the electorate that is, not the electorate we would like to see rebuilt.

	Web exclusive: 'Who is Kevin Rudd?' by Tim Soutphommasane \| Prospect Magazine December 2007 issue 141
		Rudd’s emphasis on the struggles of "working families" resonated with an electorate concerned with the unfairness of the Howard government’s radical WorkChoices industrial relations reforms, and with rising interest rates.
		Rudd won national prominence as Labor’s foreign affairs spokesman and through his dogged prosecution of the Australian Wheat Board scandal of 2005-06 (the board offered kickbacks to Saddam Hussein’s regime in return for the Iraqi purchase of wheat exports).
		Perhaps Rudd's most critical political manoeuvre, though, was to respond to a late $9bn spending pledge by Howard by casting himself as an economic conservative who could be trusted to avoid reckless spending.

	In Search of Kevin Rudd \| Webdiary - Founded and Inspired by Margo Kingston
		Rudd’s political ‘values’, to use the current vernacular, spring from the perceived shabby treatment both his parents suffered from their community and the state, and ‘the bleak charity of the time’ that the Rudds survived on after his father, Bert, died tragically at the relatively young age of 50 after a car accident.
		Rudd denied any involvement with the fake dawn service, then when it was revealed that his office indeed was aware of the plans, Rudd blamed his staff and ‘counselled’ them.
		Rudd is still right of me as well but Howard is far right of Ghenghis Khan so a drover's dog or house brick would be an improvement and apparently his electorate think so too because he cannot get a preference deal with anyone.

		Kevin Rudd, the leader of the centre-left Labor Party, won a sweeping election victory in November 2007 to become Australia’s 26th Prime Minister.
