Senator Edwards
I chose this candidate as he within the last 48 hours has discovered that many Vets are homeless and indicated that as he brought this issue into the race for the nomination he as president would solve this problem. As I expected I heard no reporters covering this news conference ask him that when he was a senator what bills or speeches he had Edwards pursued to solve this problem which is not a new issue. When he was in office, what did he do to solve this problem in his home state of North Carolina. As a voter I would like to know exactly his history of work he performed. As a Senator he would get good media coverage if he held a news conference on the issue. How he interacted with the states Governor,and other officials needs to be explained. If he can demonstrate that he was on top of this problem in his home state, I am satisfied that Mr. Edwards was not looking in the bushes for the benefit of his run for the nomination.

Since Senator Edwards is coming out very strongly against corporations as a problem in the economy or that their profits were gained by unethical practices, Mr. Edwards has was interviewed on television that his wealth was gained by investments in the corporate world and the interviewer gave the name of source of the senators personal as a portion of his wealth. Sadly Mr. Edwards did not answer that question by explaining his relationship with this source of income.

Attacking the corporate world is rather old hat. Part of his salary as a senator was generated by these evil corporations. Mr. Edwards knows that corporate profits are invested dozens of ways to improve their companies and that money is a source of public taxes. Millions of Americans have their retirement plans created by their employer's investments such as mutual funds and other dollar generating sources. If any company is growing wealthier by a great degree it helps the retirement plans I mentioned earlier.

Additionally many middle class citizens have personal investments in the stocks of many of the evil companies he says he will "crack down on". Hopefully this does not cause unemployment to increase.14:41, 24 January 2008 (UTC)cmc
