1. I'd recommend if I could
I don't have enough posts to recommend here. Fair enough. I haven't logged in for so long that I had to look up my password, anyway. Great video!

2. Thanks!
I think you only need 50 posts to recommend. So chat away! lol.

I had a hard time vlogging that event because it was so dark in that club and the lighting on stage cast lots of shadows. So, I edited out quite a lot and also needed to get it under the youtube 10 min limit. But, the event was a lot of fun!

7. Edwards will be back in Des Moines on Friday?
That's great! I read that Edwards raised twice as much in Iowa as did Hillary and he's still polling number one there. He's certainly Iowa's adopted son!

8. Maybe that is why I like him
If Iowa has adopted him, it would make sense that I too like him as a candidate and our next President as I grew up in Iowa.

10. That makes sense!
Edwards understands the work ethic and other core values of Iowans---that's why he is so supportive of workers' rights, strengthening the middle class and lifting up those in poverty.

Iowans don't just fall for glitz and glamour. They are serious, high information voters that look closely at the issues. The fact that they favor Edwards tells us quite a lot.

23. Definitely the Nominee...
Actually, I was at an event yesterday where he was addressed as 'Mr. President', so I suppose the 'nominee' is in order.

24. Our nominee, certainly, but looking ahead to November of 08, the headline
will read:

"EDWARDS CRUSHES McCAIN LIKE A POTATO CHIP"

31. Me, too. The sooner the better and the better off we'll all be.
Bush's appearance in Blacksburg today reminded me of what a puke he is.

Let's have the Iowa caucus next Tuesday, want to?

16. Hello to ultraist from FLA... JRE'sTheMan!!!!!
Hey girl.... You're the vlogging queen!! Great work. Miss you, miss the campaign, bigtime, but I've got to make sure these voting systems won't corrupt the voice of the people.

I can't wait for 2008... for PRESIDENT John Edwards and his amazing first lady.

Keep up the good work, my friend.

29. Nice video - Gives me a needed boost
I always feel better knowing that John is somewhere making a difference.
I noticed that in 2004 before he lost to Kerry and I was involved in the campaign, that I jumped out of bed every morning. What a difference than that charlatan from Crawford.

Did you know Edwards' campaign manager doesn't take a salary? Why isn't he as concerned as you are?

37. well, maybe he should be paying his staff
Instead of getting the expensive haircuts.
I just talked to a man here at work. He was talking about his poverty stands and the expensive house and
haircuts. This is worrisome, and I don't think Edwards gets it.
It is very hypocritical.

I haven't picked a candidate yet, but I keep getting disappointed to see that
he can't stop making mistakes like these.

just my 2 cents.

40. Uh,,,ya, right
Edwards grew up in Mill villages, first in his family to go to college and is totally self made and he doesn't get it?

Can only the poor advocate for those in poverty? I guess you think JFK was a hypocrite too.

33. Edwards is a WarFunder
John Edwards is a War Funder, pro-war candidate. Edwards co-sponsored Lieberman's 2002 Iraq War bill and Edwards voted AGAINST investigating who provided the faulty intelligence the U.S. government used to go to war in Iraq.

This video is a must-see for every "Edwards and Obama supporter."

39. Edwards is an anti war candidate
Edited on Thu Apr-19-07 10:07 PM by ultraist
Not sure why you backing up your claim with outdated information from over 5 years ago...but Edwards voted against the 87b funding, said his vote was wrong, and called for Congress to block the funding for the escalation. He was clear no being opposed to the so called "surge."

His plan is to immediately start bringing the troops home, starting with 50k with the remainder within 18 months, leaving NO permenant bases.

Please update yourself on where the candidates stand on the issues. TIA!

38. Great speech
Edwards is so good at breaking down his platform into concepts that everyone can understand. Something Kerry wasn't so good at. Hopefully his message will resonate with enough people to get the presidential nomination
