have had a reply from the Edward's campaign

[donsu]

I'm asking each Dem contender for prez the following question:

if elected will she/he stop the in-progress building of the Super Highway and stop the in-progress melding of Mex., Can., US into one country?

Matthew Gross of the Edward's campaign sent a letter about Edward's campaign for the poor and asking for my help, completely ignoring the question I asked.

Edward's campaign recently is courting backing from the Unions, http://www.cqpolitics.com/2007/01/edward_courts_unions_heading.html, and one of the reasons for building the Super Highway is it will start at a port in Mex. so the US west coast ports with union workers can be avoided.

Kucinich's campaign sent an email saying I will be contacted by an agent. so far no contact.

as the other prez contenders come forth I'll ask them too.

Edwards threw his weight behind efforts to increase minimum wage levels in Ohio, Arizona and Michigan. In April, he marched a picket line with Teamsters Union President James Hoffa and service workers at the University of Miami.

Last year, Edwards spoke at the national conventions for three major unions: the AFL-CIO, the Change to Win Coalition and the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. It was at the latter that Edwards proclaimed the labor movement “the greatest anti-poverty program in the United States.”

“I believe in a Democratic Party of big ideas . . . a Democratic Party that’s not afraid of saying the word ‘union,’” he told more than 7,000 attendees at the Teamsters’ June convention in Las Vegas, according to release from the union.

The UNC Center on Poverty, Work and Opportunity “helped spark a nationwide renewal of interest” in poverty and class issues, Edwards said in his resignation letter dated Dec. 28, the same day he announced his candidacy. A book co-written by Edwards, titled “Ending Poverty in America,” is scheduled to come out in April, about the time that the campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination will be picking up steam.

His singular approach to the issue appears to be giving Edwards entree to possible union endorsements, from which he was excluded in 2004. Although Edwards also emphasizing the need to reduce poverty that year, he was viewed by many labor leaders as too inexperienced after just a single term in the Senate; some also looked askance at his profile as the “Southern alternative” to Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry — who won the nomination and picked Edwards as his running mate — and Vermont Gov. Howard Dean, now chairman of the Democratic National Committee.

No, I think there is an s missing at the end of edward(s) and the comma at the end should be edited. Then it should work.
