14. That's not entirely true.
I like all of the candidates . . . but I will confess that I have some issues about Edwards.

Just like people would never vote for Biden because of the bankruptcy bill, or Anita Hill (which many of us are scratching our heads over)
My problem with Edwards -
Fortress funds - they made money off of the poor, and their home office is in the Cayman Isles to avoid paying US taxes.
And when he was an attorney, he never did any pro-bono work. How could that be? and at the same time say that he fought for the poor? My dad was a hot-shot attorney in downtown Chicago. Even he did pro-bono work. An attorney does pro-bono work when they have a heart - when sometimes doing the right thing is more important than making money.

Those 2 issues really rub me the wrong way.
That probably pissed you off, just like it pisses me off when I come across negative Biden threads - and Biden gets his share!
I am speaking for myself here, not any of the other Bidenites.

The reason we post things here is to discuss it between ourselves; we don't post this in GD-P or GD.

Anyway - it's not that we don't like other candidates - it's just that we all support Biden 110%.

peace!
