  <blurb>When was the last time you heard a President of the United States say the word union?

When was the last time we had a President that fought to strengthen labor laws, to put an end to unfair trade policies and protect the worker&amp;#39;s right to organize?  In 2008 we have the opportunity to elect a candidate that has vowed to do all of this and more.

John Edwards has based his campaign for the Presidency upon the promise to make healthcare a human right, and not something that our unions must negotiate.  He has vowed to end the global &amp;lsquo;race to the bottom&amp;rsquo;, and will demand strong labor laws that:
 
&amp;middot;        benefit working families.
&amp;middot;        will not allow trade with countries that exploit workers, and the environment.
&amp;middot;        will eliminate tax incentives for companies that move offshore

In the past six years the Bush Administration has put the privilage of corporations before the rights of working Americans.  Isn&amp;#39;t it time we had a President that will fight for us and not against us?

 Contribute to the campaign to elect John Edwards for President in 2008.
