13. John Edwards IS a phony
Edited on Fri Dec-21-07 06:06 PM by cebesius
This analysis could not be more deeply flawed. How can you give John Edwards a pass on the fact that he voted FOR the Patriot Act? There is absolutely no mention of it in your so-called analysis. I think we all know just how unconstitutional it is.

This is the oath he would have to take to become President:

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Why would you have any expectation that Edwards, who authorized such unconstitutional legislation, would somehow act to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution with the new unconstitutional powers that he authorized?

He has "CONFLICT OF INTEREST" written all over his face.

I cannot in good conscience support a neoconservative enabler like John Edwards. How can you?

Vote for someone who got it right the first time.

Dennis Kucinich for President 2008!
