3. Edwards.
:think:

Why must people continue to promote the corporate media's "two-person race" here on DU?

4. Kucinich
after that, probably Edwards.

The DLC can only unite corporatists and lobbyists.

7. Neither would help our situation.
Endless war and profiteering. Massive profits for insurance companies. Maybe those are the folks you should be asking.

8. Richardson.
Just because Iowa and NH didn't support him doesn't mean much to me.
Top two, top three at least.

10. Edwards. I do wish people would quit buying into the M$M meme that it's a 2 person race
last time I checked the delegates WON so far by each of the top three candidates are pretty close in number.

11. You mean the Republidemocratic Party of the corporate elite?
That's a good question. Probably either candidate would be good at helping keep that party unified.

21. You can't serve two masters, the exploiter and the exploited!
Edwards is the candidate that can best represent the interests of the working class.

The Clintons have always sided with the exploiters, all the way back to their Arkansas days and Entergy!
