Edwards vows to fight poverty

It's about time that someone did.

From an Edwards email:

Thirty seven million Americans live in poverty—one out of every 8 of us. This is a national disgrace.

The millions of Americans who struggle with poverty are all but invisible to the media and to the power brokers in Washington, D.C. That needs to change. Starting today, I will be traveling on the Road to One America—visiting 11 cities in 8 states over 3 days to expose the problem of poverty and highlight our power to solve it. And I am asking you to join me.

Help me expose poverty in America. Send me a picture or a story about poverty you have seen or encountered.

Please send your pictures and stories to info@johnedwards.com.

For the next three days, you can also join me on the Road to One America by checking for the latest photos, videos and blog updates at:
