John Edwards campaign is considered by many to have populist themes lifting up the working class fighting for the middle class healthcare for everyone and eliminating poverty. These are concepts that we should embrace. We should help those who cant help themselves. John Edwards tells every American that he will fight for them. The defining attribute that makes Edwards appealing may be the reason why he wont win the nomination. He wont take money from corporations lobbyists or special interest groups. He is being outspent by Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton by a ratio of 5 to 1. Obama and Clinton <i> have<i>  been taking money from lobbyists and corporations. Edwards believes you have to fight the corporations and moneyed interests that have a stranglehold on America. He wants to take back America and make the government work for the people. Bipartisanship is great but look what has happened over the last 8 years with the Republicans in power. Scorched earth politics by the Neocons have run this country into the ground. We were lied into a war that should have never been started. There have been so many scandals from the outing of CIA agent Valerie Plame to the partisan firing of the U.S. Attorneys to the Jack Abramoff lobbyist scam to no bid contracts to Halliburton to unchecked executive orders by Bush. And the list goes on and on. The Democrats had a big win in November of 2006. The result has been the failure of Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid to hold the Bush Administration accountable for abuse of power. The Congress and Senate have folded on votes to stop funding the Iraq War and failed on votes to amend the Federal Intelligence Surveillance Act. The housing crisis has been a national tragedy with millions of people losing their homes. The economy is tanking and the country seems to be heading into a recession. Another mission accomplished by George Bush. The Democrats have kowtowed to the Republicans and it has been a bipartisanship disaster. It seems that some Democrats are afraid to speak truth to power and vote their conscience. They would rather vote to preserve their political futures. I want someone to fight for our rights someone who will fight for the average American. John Edwards seems like the only candidate who is pushing this issue and driving the Democratic Party in the right direction. Its time for the Democrats to start acting like Democrats. This populist message works. It worked with Franklin Delano Roosevelt. When you stand up for what you believe in and do the right thing not only for yourself but for your country people will follow. Edwards is campaigning based on what he believes is right. He is not pandering based on studies by focus groups to run toward the middle to convince Independents and Republicans to vote for him. He is running toward the base of his party. That happens to be the direction of the left. That is the direction where all Americans should be heading. banking servicechronicle december 2020

 banking service chronicle december 2019  published this article The great conservative revolution started when Ronald Reagan took office where greed was considered a virtue and lying was a tool to push policy. Conservative doctrine spiraled out of control as the Neocons of George W. Bushs administration have taken this nation to a dark place where only the rich get richer the middle class gets squeezed and the population at the poverty level increases. Greed doesnt work. Its time for a Liberal revolution. I couldnt write it in any better so Ill have to quote from the movie Its a Wonderful Life. This is an excerpt from a monologue by the character George Bailey. Georges father Peter Bailey has just died. In this scene George Bailey is standing up to the antagonist Henry F. Potter so he can save his fathers Building and Loan business. <blockquote><center> George <center> ...He didnt save enough money to send Harry to school let alone me. But he did help a few people get out of your slums Mr. Potter. And whats wrong with that Why . . . Here youre all businessmen here. Doesnt it make them better citizens Doesnt it make them better customers You . . . you said . . . Whatd you say just a minute ago . . . They had to wait and save their money before they even ought to think of a decent home. Wait Wait for what Until their children grow up and leave them Until theyre so old and brokendown that they . . . Do you know how long it takes a working man to save five thousand dollars Just remember this Mr. Potter that this rabble youre talking about . . . they do most of the working and paying and living and dying in this community. Well is it too much to have them work and pay and live and die in a couple of decent rooms and a bath Anyway my father didnt think so. People were human beings to him but to you a warped frustrated old man theyre cattle. Well in my book he died a much richer man than youll ever be<blockquote> Except for the top five percent who benefited the most from George Bushs tax cuts the rest of us are the rabble George Bailey said Mr. Potter was talking about. One can say that Henry Potter symbolizes present day corporate <st1 wst=on><st1><st1 wst=on>America<st1> and our government. In the real world we do most of the working and paying and living and dying in this country. Dont we the rabble deserve a government that represents us and not corporations and special interest groups Dont we deserve universal healthcare Dont we deserve at least a $10.00 hour minimum wage Dont we deserve civil rights under the Constitution and not a President who grants overreaching power to himself Dont we deserve to have our voices heard when the majority of us believe we should bring our troops home from <st1 wst=on><st1><st1 wst=on>Iraq<st1> At the very least we deserve all of these things. We are not being heard. We watch the news that is reported by millionaires talking about the millionaires running for President who will look out for the interests of millionaires who donated to their campaigns. banking service chronicle december 2019
