4. These videos are just great.
It is so good to see Edwards answering the questions of ordinary Americans. Wow! We haven't seen a president with the ability to do that for a long time -- all too long.

6. What You Are Seeing Is "Inclusion Of People" And You Can Sense
that his message is about them. No doubt, not all of it can get done, no President (current Idiot excluded) can fulfill everything proposed. News Flash... there's supposed to be THREE EQUAL BRANCHES of our Government that need to be involved.

I see someone that seems to be talking to me and I'm feeling a connection, AND only through a PC.

Others here connect to theirs, but I "feel" better with him than others.

Biden has that quality too!

7. "...a Citizen's Congress."
Edited on Wed Jan-02-08 01:43 AM by AmBlue
This is another wonderful idea from John Edwards. What better way to add strength to his "bully pulpit" for The People than to create a conduit for the force of public opinion to come straight through to the Presidency. This is the kind of Presidency that I've been waiting for for so long. Can you imagine? A President and our Government looking to The People to set policy and make laws? It's how it was suppose to be before our representative government was hijacked by powerful corporate interests.

9. John and Elizabeth are People People...
...People FOR People.

I'm VERY DISGUSTED with that 'wall around Washington' myself. bu$h would get protested and pelted with who-knows-what if he leaves his citadel/compound and he KNOWS it. He KNOWS it because his policies are not FOR people unless it's CORPORATE people.

Yap. That's a problem. And JOHN EDWARDS is the only candidate I see addressing it to a great extent at all.

EVERYONE ELSE in bu$hit's world IS LEFT OUT and THEY know it -- and HE knows it. So he HAS TO BE AFRAID of them and he wants them to be afraid of him (and whatever ELSE he can get them to be afraid about).

That's - well bu$hit. It's a corporatocracy/dictatorship.

IT'S TIME FOR THAT TO CHANGE. JOHN EDWARDS IS THE ONLY candidate I see and hear addressing this boldly and directly.

I DON'T WANT a President who will try to "negotiate" with them.

I DON'T WANT a President who is PART of them.

I WANT A PRESIDENT who will FIGHT them and fight FOR someone BESIDES them.

That's JRE. He's MY kind of people, and MY kind of President.

Of course I will support whatever candidate wins the nom - because any of them are better than bu$hit, Inc. But my preference, for reasons I've given here and there on DU - is JRE.

I'm happy to see Nader and MM have the common sense to back him, too. That's one LESS thing he'll have against him if he's the nominee.
