John Edwards has a lot to offer Americans and his message of equality and ending the Two Americas is a great campaign to run off of. He is definitely for the working people of America. Not just the wealthy working people, but the people who actually bust their butts for minimum wage every day only to get nowhere is our economic system. We as Americans deserve the right to hear his message and decide in 2008 whether or not he is a worthy candidate for the office of the Presidency of the United States.

The fate given to his beloved wife, Elizabeth is very unfortunate indeed. Millions of men, women and children suffer from Cancer every year and many don't make it through. Elizabeth was "lucky" to have discovered her cancer fairly early and can has been treating it for a while now with mixed results. I am sure husband John is very supportive in her ordeal, and spends as much time with her as he can while on the campaign trail. Elizabeth is turn is out telling her story, and at the same time supporting John Edwards and his message of Two Americas and how what system needs to change and what Mr. Edwards will do in order to bring about that change.

I wish Elizabeth Edward well, as do almost all Americans and people around the world. I hope that she can not only continue to battle this dreaded disease, but eventually overcome and rid her body of the Cancer. I realize that this is not likely and eventually the Cancer will take its toll. The best thing for her, John Edwards and the American people is to appreciate her grace, charm and courage and to listen what John Edwards has to say. In 2008 we need to choose a leader we can be proud of who will lead the US back to prominence.
