each and every presidential candidate for 2008 is rich and might't completely comprehend working human beings or poverty because of the fact they are thus far removed from it. effective, they communicate approximately working human beings and poverty yet that's basically for votes because of the fact they don't comprehend. Edwards grew up in a working classification kinfolk yet has been rich for see you later he would not remember because of the fact I pay $8 for a haircut and he will pay 50 cases that. everyone who can spend $4 hundred on a haircut is out of touch with working human beings, many that make under that each and every week. i ask your self what Hillary will pay for a perm. Has everyone got here upon that out yet? Edwards could probable do appropriate to flow to a barber and make effective the clicking covers it. If he returns to his roots i think of human beings can assist you him.

It costs alot to even run in any large political race so candidates will all have some buckos.
What is more disturbing is the hatred so many have for those with money. Being rich is different things to different people. This hatred will eventually lead to redistribution of wealth. ( socialism/communism). Everyone still will not be equal because the people running the country will have the wealth. Everyone else will be equally unhappy and poor. This idea may sound good to those that have little or no money, but the end result will not enrich them by one penny.

I do not know of a single politician in the mix from either side that lives in poverty. They all are very wealthy, you have to be to even get into the race. The American people need to realize that there really is little distinction between the DNC and the RNC. They both have sold Americans out to serve the corporate interests. They split on hot button issues to divert the public from more relevant issues. Like immigration, both sides are supporting it, where is the partisan split on this - there is none because most of the partisan politics is theatrics and posturing.

Hmmm....Not sure I even understand the criticism. Why would I care if he has a half million dollar salary from a hedge fund? Cheney has shoveled billion$ of no-bid, guaranteed contracts to the company he used to worked for, and I'm somehow supposed to pretend I'm upset about Edwards earning money?
And I'm supposed to pretend I'm upset that he collected a speaker fee? Are you claiming that if he had given a speech about Russia, or Iraq, then it would be okay to collect his speaker fee, but that people dealing with poverty AREN'T allowed to collect speaker fees? Why is that, exactly?
This is just more of the phony outrage peddled by the right. I save my outrage for REAL issues, like the hundreds of billions of dollars and thousands of lives being squandered in Iraq due to Bush's ineptness. I'll make a deal with you. Read ANY of the accounts of the Iraq war currently on the bookshelfs. Go ahead. Take your pick. Once you're finished, get back to me and let me know if speaker fees is still really your biggest concern.....

So the only candidates allowed to be wealthy or to make a lot of money are Republicans? Bush and Cheney each have a whole lot more money then Edwards.
Romney is far from poor. McCain is a rich man and Rudy chargers a lot more for his "consulting firm" then Edwards ever did for a trial.
Mike Bloomberg (a fine man for a Republican) is one of the richest men in America. Should he be barred from public office?
Come on how afraid are you guys of Edwards that you keep attacking him?

lol, maybe you are looking at this all wrong. Maybe he is planning a speech that goes something like this....
"I spent $544,400, on myself. Think about how many poor people that could have fed, the next time you are spending frivolously!" See he's just trying to make a statement! lol.

Edwards has ZERO chance of winning , but I think it's important to continue to expose him just in case the Democratic winner picks him as a running-mate .
Barring any 'miracles' from the devil himself , I don't think any of the Democratic candidates has a chance in hell !!
