On the recordMay 17, 2007
The New York Times today was reviewing the financial statements of the candidates for President, and I noticed that the former Senator from North Carolina who is running for President, John Edwards, received half a million dollars in payments last year for his work with Fortress, a hedge fund. I also noticed that the New York Times represents that the Fortress hedge fund is incorporated in the Cayman Islands, probably in that building to which you are referring. I am just wondering, because the Senator asked who is being fooled here, is it the position of the Senator from North Dakota that Senator Edwards has been fooled here or that he is fooling the American people?

In Hillary's case, it's a big issue, because of her -- because of the challenges that she has on the ethical side. In Trump's case, it's a big issue, because he's so erratic.
