Democratic Presidential Candidate
John Edwards - Rating
Profile
Rating |
Born to a working-class family, John Edwards had a
lucrative career as a
personal injury lawyer before winning his Senate seat and serving for
7 years.
John Ed
wards speaks well, is well-groomed and has name
recognition from having been John Kerry's running mate in the 2004
Presidential campaign.
But he lacks gravitas and foreign policy experience, and proposed an anti-
Conservative,
un-
Christian and un-
evangelical
social
values platform: he
is pro-
abortion,
pro-embryonic stem cell research, and opposes a Constitutional ban on
homosexual
marriage.
Our rating of Senator Edwards' candidacy for President is a
D.
(Update: Joh
n Edw
ards was blessed with a loyal wife in Elizabeth, who put her
husband's unwavering political ambitions ahead of even her own life and campaigned to
support his bid for the White House while she was sick with terminal cancer.
Jo
hn Edw
ards rewarded her loyalty by having a baby from an extramarital affair
with a woman whom he promised to marry after his loyal wife died. Jo
hn Edwa
rds
is unfit to lead anyone, and his rating has been
lowered only to
D- in order to to reserve
F for
Satanic blasphemy.)
