2008 is my first time voting, and I'm excited to be involved in such an exciting and important election. I have been asked by many people who I am supporting for President and who I am endorsing as the creator of PeaceTakesCourage.com. I was a supporter of John Edwards in 2004 and I am a supporter again in 2008. Why? While I could go on for hours about why John Edwards is the candidate I support, I can easily sum it up in 5 reasons.
1. I am a 17 year old who will be voting for the first time in this upcoming election. I want a future I can look forward to. I want a future where my country isn't bogged down in debt and where we aren't in a disastrous war. I want a future where I can afford to go to college and where I can feel secure in the fact that I have a President who is MY President, the President of the average every-day Americans. John Edwards is that candidate. 2. John Edwards is populism's candidate. As he has said, the gap between America's richest and America's poorest is absolutely shameful. I believe that John Edwards is the best candidate to help low income families and the working class in America. 3. Americans need health care NOW! Every American should have access to affordable health care. The fact that this country has people that are ill and dying because they don't have access to health care is a failure on our part. I think the John Edwards will help heal this wound. 4. The war in Iraq has got to end. I want a President who will pledge to work to bring our troops home as soon as possible. John Edwards has done this. 5. JOHN EDWARDS CAN WIN! Our country is in a desperate state right now and we have absolutely got to make some changes. John Edwards has proven that we will make those changes and he also has proven that he can win the general election so that he is able to make those changes. I support John Edwards as the nominee for the Democratic Presidential Candidate, and I'll be voting for him on Super Tuesday and supporting him as long as he is running. Go John GO! - Ava Lowery http://www.peacetakescourage.com http://www.avasarmy.com  |
