No. The point is that his advocating for the issue of poverty, is a political stragegic move.
He was poor once, and I am sure he represented poor people extremely well. I don't doubt that he will advocate for governement policies that he thinks will help the poor. Part of the problem is, most of these policies will do more harm than good, but thats another topic.

I would think Edwards would want to address these issues. I have an opinion as do others who share my view. If he chooses to ignore what many people think, he does it at his own peril. If I am wrong in my view, at what point should he or those who support him, attempt to clear the issue up? Again, this is an example of political discord. Ignoring 800 pound gorillas in the room, isn't helpful. But, you folks think my view on this Edwards, issue is baseless. Perhaps, it is only a 600 pound gorilla, but he is in the room.
