10. THIS is why I like Edwards...(well ONE reason...)
Edited on Sat Jun-02-07 10:41 AM by Triana
Edwards stood up to corporations before, and he would be an advocate for the people rather than corporations if he were elected President. That is why so many Edwards detractors try to paint him as being in bed with corporations, like other candidates --they know the truth, and if the public learns the truth there will be a swing to him as the preferred candidate.

I've known the truth about him for quite some time. He made his fortune as a lawyer STANDING UP TO CORPORATIONS and representing patients, consumers, employees harmed by them and mistreated by them...that's why the detractors (the predatory power mongers profiting from the status quo ie: corporations and those who support them and the GOP) HATE him.

YES. He's a lawyer. But he's been a lawyer for THE PEOPLE, not the POWERFUL corporations and gov'ts who prey upon them. And that's the difference.
