That is so cute, and yet sad, as Wade was the son who was killed in an auto accident.

Emma looks like a young Katherine Heigl, and also like my own neice, who also looks like a young Katherine.

Vote! It is becoming more important every day.

Id trade Columbus Day for National VOTING DAY!

This is cute and so true. It just shows that

shows that out of the mouths of babes comes truth and honesty.

i don't know about that i wouldn't think Edwards himself would have time to post youtube videos and just has somebody on his staff doing youtbube videos and updated his myspace page and stuff. So whomever is updating this, and might read this please pass it on

You can almost bet your telling him yourself! HERE, HERE!

Make it so media can't report results until noon the next day, so people in West Coast will matter. I mean why vote in Hawaii if the rest of the nation already has a winner shown by media. Make national hours of 7am-10pm so more people can vote. Make a national standard ballot which is basic school bubble scantron paper ballot. I hope someone tells Edwards my ideas because we need SERIOUS Reform in our elections.

We need to seriously reform the system. Make it national holiday, toss out electoral college popular vote only, randomize primary states by group. Group A: 4 small states, 3 large states, 3 medium state all over the nation for 5 weeks. Every election cycle different states go first, that way it keeps things fresh.

I really hope when John Edwards wins the Presidency that he helps to make voting better overall. Paper ballot backups, and changing the day to vote for First Saturday and Sunday of November. Or at least national holiday. Voting is important enough to stop work for. If regular people can vote America will be stronger for it
