The Contendor
Today Sen. John Edwards has announced that he will be seeking the Democratic nomination for United States President for the 2008 election. His official announcement was made in New Orleans 9th ward which was devastated by hurricane Katrina. I have several questions for the Senator, I know that he may not read this blog, but many of his supporters and probably some people on his staff visit us. Therefore we would like to know these answers:
- During the last presidential election the Senator, debating Vice President Dick Chenney, could not articulate an answer posed by Gwen Ifel, who asked about the impact of HIV in the African American community in America. What is the Senators position on combating HIV in the African American community? How would the Senator work with the CDC to encourage the better prevention strategies other than the current D.E.B.I. theory?
- What is the Senators positiong on Presidential pardons, should we continue to allow this or should we allow the courts to establish social justice?
- What is the Senators position relating to the legalization of marijuana?
- Many Americans are burden with debt. In many instances these Americans struggle with finding adequate housing, purchase homes, getting jobs all because of their credit scores are not at "adequate levels" to permit these things to happen, if President, would the Senator consider legislation that prevents credit reporting companies from reporting negative entries into individual reports for no more than 3 years?
- What is the Senators position on Gay adaption?
- Would the Senator consider running as Baraka Obamas running mate?

Adolf,
Thank you for asking these questions, often times politicians don't get asked questions about the real problems concerining Americans, and in this case, I really like the way you made the questions hit home?
I gotta be real honest with you, to say that you may never get a response from Senator Edward but it is good that you are even asking these tough questions. You go goy, I love your blog.
Those all are excellent questions and to further add, I think it would be very interesting to hear/read/see Baraka Obamas' response to these as well should/when he decide to annouce his canidacy.
The white folks will never accept a Black Man as President with a White Man as vice. If anything, It will be Edwards/Obama 08.
Don't forget Hillary is plotting. When she drops its going to be crazy. I have a feeling that she is gonna pick Vilsack as Vice.
