I want to praise John Kerry's selection of Senator John Edwards as his running mate. For more than 2 decades, Senator Edwards has been fighting on behalf of the little guy against America's large corporate interests. John Kerry picked the perfect running mate to complete a ticket that brings hope to middle-class Americans that their needs will no longer be ignored at the White House. Senator Edwards talks movingly and effectively about two Americas. Over the past 3 years, the bridge between them has grown dramatically, thanks to failed policies pushed by the Bush administration that benefit only the privileged few. I am confident the Kerry/Edwards ticket will energize Americans to demand a change of course and support a new vision for America.
