John Edwards: “America wasn’t built on Wall Street”
Posted by pointblankpolitics on September 4, 2007
John Edwards campaign manager David Bonior sent out a message to supporters about the Big News on Labor Day.
Over Labor Day Weekend, John was honored to receive the endorsements of two of the biggest unions in the country – the United Steelworkers and the United Mine Workers of America.
Combined with the support of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America, John is now backed by more than 1.8 million union members and retirees – more than any other candidate in the race.
John was introduced by Steve Skvara – a longtime steelworker who is now retired and struggling to afford health care for himself and his wife.
People like Steve are what this campaign is about – John has fought for hard-working people struggling to get by all his life, and now he’s fighting to represent them in the White House.
Check out video from the endorsement rally below:
John Edwards is the worker’s candidate in this race. He is fighting for every man and every woman and every child in this country, so we can have a stronger middle class and a stronger future in America. He is standing up for workers and families, because he knows it’s all of us who have made America great, not just Wall Street.
