Seeing that these other reviews are from before the 1st debate on April 26, I think the errors in them will be obvious to most of us now. Edwards is obviously not too far left after you've seen him standing on stage with Kucinich and Gravel; however, he is not to the right like Hillary or the others, because when asked if he agreed with the phrase "War on Terrorism", along with Kucinich and Gravel, he didn't raise his hand; which means he understands that global terrorism is not something firm enough to simply point and shoot at; and he made the point that we need to work to convince potential jihadists that we are not out to kill Muslims in general.

He is showing us courage and presidential ability when he says, "If Bush vetos the Iraq funding bill with timetables, then pass it again and send it back until he either signs it, or the troops come home."  He's right and if the congress gives in, Edwards will shoot to the top of the democratic presidential candidates.

Edward's health care plan is not socialized medicine. Everybody knows it needs fixing, but he doesn't propose to put everyone on the same program, or subsidize the drug companies. He identifies the need for reform of administrative inefficiencies and lowering costs by increasing collective bargaining and allowing a government health care insurance provider to compete with the private sector in the same way that the Fed uses interest rates to adjust the loan rates of private banks. It's alright to make a profit, but the market is supposed to be the perfect mechanism for providing for the needs of the people; so why isn't it being done. I think big business is using runaway debt to manipulate the market, as was done during the Gilded Age early last century. It is time a government of the People set things right.
