John Breadwards

Wow. Edwards has a lotta bread, doesn't he? I mean, we all knew it. All the other POTUS candidates have it too. And there is no rule saying that someone "with" isn't allowed to advocate for those "without." But, dude. Wow. You made $1.7 million from working 'part time' for, and investing in, the Fortress hedge fund. Fortress, the one that owns offshore funds, and whose portfolio includes subprime lenders, the ones who offer shady high-risk loans to poorer people. You know, the kind you deplore in your campaign.

At the very least, it's a massive oversight of a granular detail, but one your campaign ought to have seen coming.

Next up: Giuliani and Breadwards have investments in Sudan. Is ANYONE in this campaign paying ANY attention to where they put (or get) their money?! For the love of god, y'all. Your accountant is calling.

The real issue is that a person lacking money can no longer afford to run for president, such is our finance system.
