In short, John Edwards is standing-up against corporate America - and to those of us who have studied the rise of fascism in the United States, it begins and ends with corporate America and the dynasty families that continue pulling the strings of corporatism’s puppets that are masquerading as our “duly elected leadership.” It’s time for a change, and as we watch Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama continually spar on issues that mean little or nothing to the actual health and welfare of this nation, John Edwards stands to the side of the fray, speaking to what he envisions as the real problems which are crippling America rather than getting caught-up in the destruction of Clinton and Obama’s private fight for what they perceive is a two-horse race. If the Edwards camp properly capitalizes on Mr. Edward’s opposition to the telecoms and his genuine concern over media deregulation they will be able to reach the core of those who oppose Bush’s Neo-conservative agenda and Edwards could easily rise as the candidate that will remain standing as the only one who truly offers hope and change to America.
This Democratic Presidential bid may have begun with Hillary being anointed by the MSM as the Democrat’s most popular candidate, however now that the MSM has marginalized Kucinich and Paul via dirty tricks and “policy changes”, Americans are waking-up to the fact that our MSM is attempting to manipulate the upcoming elections, and a candidate that actually speaks the truth and rises above the petty campaign fights between the two “front-runners” is suddenly gaining in popularity and is very quickly becoming the rational choice for an electorate that is demanding change - and while Hillary is certainly representative of the corporatism that has been strangling America, Obama comes to us with charismatic speeches of what he envisions is a road to change, but in my opinion, lacks the experience or political capitol that a populist candidate could easily raise in a political climate that is biased against big business and the status quo; The interests of corporate America are showing through by the MSM’s advocacy of a Clinton or Obama Presidency, and to me, that’s a warning signal all of us should heed! Whoever the MSM is attempting to shove down our throats are the ones who most likely will adhere to the “status quo”, and their obvious support for the pair is enough of a sign for me to run in the opposite direction.
John Edwards deserves a closer look, and during the upcoming Presidential debates, if the right questions are asked, Edwards could run-off with the debate while Clinton and Obama stumble and attempt to come-up with responses that are politically correct and somehow take swipes at one another instead of making points in the debate. In this writer’s opinion, the Hillary/Obama feud could easily show that only one candidate is demonstrating the ethics and wherewithal to deserve our votes - and that’s John Edwards.
