Does he really understand the plight of the oppressed in this nation after all his wife is dying with cancer and this is his second attempt at the Whitehouse. Do you think he has the "fire in the belly" to help America?

I think the fact that he is a self-made millionaire after being born in total poverty is a testament towards his knowledge of the poor...

He is not who I support , but he is a good and decent man with humble beginnings and I think cares about people. I would support him if he were the nominee of the dems.
Maybe we need somebody with a little less fire in the belly than the present choice who prefers threats and war to peaceful diplomacy, as a first resort.
I think Edwards has enough fire in the belly though.
I'm supporting Obama through the primary, and I'll support the dem nominee unless it is Kucinich (not likely).
I might consdier Guliani in the genral election, but I could not go Huckabee, McCain, Romney or Thompson.

Power! He had a glimpse of it in 2004.
I don't think he understands anything to do with the oppressed or the poor. Anybody that gets a $400 haircut and helps businesses screw the regular person in court doesn't have a clue!

I think he truly believes he can change and improve this country and it's current priorities and practices. I think he is a decent guy that will be disposed of by the machine and it's oblivious partiality towards Hillary. He is just one of the several qualified and more palatable democratic candidates that are being forced aside and marginalized by the powerful elite within the democratic party.

Turning the different cheek would not make you lose a combat. attempt it & see what takes place. If we would have achieved that once 911 as a substitute of dropping extra advantageous than 3000 extra lives & all the different damages we would have a healthful u . s . a .. It replaced into concern that attracted that concern. It replaced right into a time to emerge (emergency 911) yet we did not try this as a results of republicans & Bush mendacity to congress & putting them able the place that they had no selection. Now issues are turning around & you will see in case you somewhat carry on with what Jesus says issues will artwork our magnificently . we are to help the undesirable yet as we provide it comes back to us greater.

first of all, we're all dying from birth till it's over. no one gets out of here alive! we don't quit living and just wait to die do we? if so,we're sure wasting ourselves, right?
it seems like he and his wife have a vision for our country that causes them each to be driven to make it better, and that sure sounds good to me. i think he and obama would make a heck of a combination for change in our country. let's try not to judge people as we've been so well to to do, and effect REAL change in our country, because change begins with us!

I don't really think that any of the people running, that I know of do..! They also risk being bought, & the temptation will be hard for them to resist.

I think John Edwards is a stand up guy and honestly wants to help america

I think he wants to be president for bragging rights. He did not spend much time with unions until he decided to run for office. Now he pickets with them.
He is a far better choice than Hillary though for at least he is not afraid to take a firm stand on an issue, unlike her.
