Here is Edwards' platform on poverty, which he rightly ties closely to education and the lack of. It's brief, but I think you'll like what he has to say.
I support Edwards because he is, to me, the most "real" of the three candidates. His positions speak to the issues I care about, which are central to the health and future of our country: Education. Health care. Eliminating poverty. Given the lost and forgotten a second chance.
He's not a rock star like Obama or an expert pol like Hillary, and I don't give a damn about his haircuts. Stuff like that is being disseminated to discredit him. When it comes to the issues, he speaks to me more readily than any other candidate running, and he's got my vote as long as he's in the race
