Reply #36: Edwards for the working people

[UnionManinNC]

I to am an Edwards supporter.  I supported him the first time
and i will again.
THe problems i have with the other two candidates is simple;
Clinton first, for all the good her husband did lets look at
some of the dumb things.  First was of course NAFTA, what a
failure this was. How many jobs have we lost because of this.
There was a bill before him that would have done away with the
Right to work laws in this country. This would have allowed
workers to more easily form Unions without the abuse of
Employers. He sat on it and would do nothing. Ms. Clinton
tried to work on health care while her husband was President
but gave it up why? Because of pressure from big
pharmaceuticals and health care industries. WHy should we
think she wouldn't cave again on the side of big business.
As for Obama, he has the support of Oprah Winfrey and every
other rich corporate type in this country that want to have
decent values.  The problem with this is simple, you are rich
and the average American is not.  He simply states we need
change. No S---!  A blind man can see we need change.
I want to see three things addressed by the next president.
1. STop the bleeding of jobs leaving America. Punish
countries and companies for not adhering to trade agreements.
I will go one step farther do away with trade agreements. The
other countries aren't going to abide by them why should we.
If a company is selling a product in this country they should
have a factory here building that product.
2. Health care for everyone: I think everyone has seen the
problem here. Just show us a plan that everyone can afford
and covers everyone equally.
3.Bring our troops home: As a Veteran it hurts me to see
almost 4000 Americans have given their lives for what? I dint
think any of them died in vane, however it is time to bring
the rest home before more have to die. If Iraq cant stand on
it's own by now it never will.
