Edwards Brings Fight For The Middle Class To California As Part Of Three-Day Coast To Coast Tour

Edwards Brings Fight For The Middle Class To California As Part Of Three-Day Coast To Coast Tour

Does this sound familiar?

Edwards' message is resonating with voters in red states and blue states, in big cities and small towns. In addition to strong grassroots support in these states, Edwards also enjoys the support of numerous labor groups and state and local elected officials who know that he is the best candidate to win the White House and bring real change to our country. A recent CNN poll showed Edwards was the only Democrat to beat all four leading Republicans nationally, and state by state polls show even more conclusively that Edwards is the most electable democrat in key battleground states -- and even wins in states like Missouri and Oklahoma that have gone "red" in recent presidential elections.


"I'm proud to support John Edwards because he understands, better than any other candidate, the challenges facing working Americans," said L.A. City Councilman Richard AlarcГіn. "Whether it's truly universal health care, fixing America's trade policy or ending America's involvement in Iraq, John Edwards has offered real solutions to the challenges Americans face, and he's determined to be a voice for regular people. I truly believe we need his leadership in the White House."

A few of Edwards' supporters in California include:
Kevin Bacon, Actor
Harry Belafonte, Actor/Civil Rights Activist
Danny Glover, Actor/Civil Rights Activist
Tim Robbins, Actor
Susan Sarandon, Actor

The outstanding American Presidency Project at UC Santa Barbara is an archive of nearly any official word that's come out of a president or presidential candidate's mouth or pen since pretty much forever.

And anyone I knew understood what a used slimy car salesman he was ....by the time I was through! Much of the now Sanders supporters here at DU loved this guy to death!

Him and his plagiarized two America speech! He forgot about his Anerica....where men cheat on their terminally wives while using her illness as a campaign ploy!

He ended up winning 3.8% of the vote in California!

Edwards was building in NC in anticipation of winning the presidency was cringe worthy to me.

Two America's indeed.

things done. If Kucinich was still semi-relevant, they'd be backing him. They've become parodies of themselves.
