THE PETITION http://www.draftedwards.org


To Draft John Reid Edwards


It is no secret that our great country is stumbling and in need of a hero! Our country and its people need someone they can believe in and have real reason to trust again. This country needs a real leader who cares, not just about some of the people, but about all of the people of this country and our neighbors throughout the world.

This country has the opportunity to have such a trusted leader in a great person who has proven to be a man of wisdom and character. He has displayed nothing less than integrity. and honor and offers a wealth of experience while showing compassion for his fellow human being. He is a man of valor and of courage.

This man is John Reid Edwards!

John Edwards has dedicated his life to the protection of the victims of corporate greed.
He has served all of the people, not just the elite.
He clearly understands that prosperity for all the people serves all of the people, from all levels, poor to elite.
He can return the reality of the American Dream back to the American People.

Our mission and goal, in 2008, in order to Protect and Preserve the Constitution, and to return this Country to the People for whom it was formed by our Forefathers, is to make:

JOHN REID EDWARDS

the

NEXT PRESIDENT

of the

UNITED STATES of AMERICA !!!!!

We ask you to help us in this desperately needed mission in these, the worst of times that this country has endured in very many years.

Our goal is to have enough signatures to show support and offer Senator Edwards the power he needs to ensure the issues he has brought to light and supported will be supported going forward.

We ask you to sign a petition to draft John Reid Edwards and his Party Platform that we may present it at the National Democratic Convention in Denver, Colorado this 2008.

Respectfully submitted,

~ The Committee to Draft John Reid Edwards for President 2008

Please note: This Petition is not affiliated with the candidate or the candidate's campaign or any part of any existing political party or affiliation.

We are a 'Grassroots Movement' to Draft Edwards and are composed of a very large and loyal group of concerned and law abiding Patriots across this nation; who love our Country and want to 'protect and preserve it' for all existing and future Americans!

5. Seems unrealistic when you have two candidates head to head - Edwards never
should have dropped out.

8. Maybe at the convention if Gore turns it down
If we have a compromise candidate Gore will be the first choice but he may very well turn it down. Edwards would likely be the second choice and would expect.

If you want Edwards and are undecided between Hillary and Obama vote for Hillary to keep this going. That is your only chance of getting Edwards at the top of the ticket, albeit it is a very slim one.

13. 150 signatures needs to be 1,500,000 by July ?
Are the signatures voter verifiable? petiononline's are not, so sometimes these get ignored as fluff.

Where else have you promoted this?

From my experiences with the Draft Jim Webb movement, we also included "How much are you willing to Pledge" section. Of course, it was not binding, but gave the movement an idea if people were willing to put their money where their cybermouths were :)
