I'll vote for your baby face

Sen. John Ried Edwards, your baby face makes me hot for the presidential race. Edwards is my preliminary pick for president ....below are my reasons why in no particular order…

1. He’s smmaht. Edwards was a trial lawyer.

2. Minority vote. Edwards is one of the few white powerful politicians that is talking about the culture separation between white and black. He also formed the One America Committee to fight poverty.

3. American dream. Edwards was the first person in his family to go to college. He’s bachelors degree is in textile technology. His father worked in a textile mill and his mother worked in a post office.

4. Sympathy vote. His first born son died in a freak car accident when he was 16 in 1996.

5. His wife. Elizabeth Edwards discovered that she had a lump in her breast a week before election day in 2004. The day after the election Elizabeth was diagnosed with breast cancer. She is now in remission. She has also talked openly about her weight issues.

6. He’s attractive. Yes, American’s do take attractiveness in consideration.

7. He is rich…. He isn’t from old money, he is a self made man who can use that money to run for president.

And on top of all that, he's great at articulating his ideas. He's no John Kennedy, but the man is a solid public speaker....certainly would be a step up from the stoic and boring style of John Kerry, and the awkwardness of Al Gore. This is a guy that is being seriously underestimated in the race for president right now, and I'm glad LP brought his name into the discussion.
