J ohn Edwards drops out of US presidential race, I expect him to endorse Obama very soon. Edwards was always the underdog, trailing Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. He based his campaign bid on supporting the middle class and promissed to get out of Iraq from day one.
If he endorse Obama, this has huge meeaning for Obama’s campaign and another blow to Hillary Clinton’s Bid.
Edwards will have a speech at 18:00 GMT in New Orleans.

Senator Edward M. “Ted” Kennedy, a leading icon in the democratic party and the brother of JFK the assassinated president, joined with his son Representative Patrick Kennedy, and niece Caroline Kennedy the daughter of the assassinated president endorsed Barack Obama for the party’s presidential nomination during a rally at the American University in Washington DC.
Sen. Ted Kennedy called Obama “an inspirational uniter”, and each one of the Kennedys linked Obama to John F. Kennedy the iconic Democratic leader who Obama usually is compared to. Sen. Ted Kennedy talked how he always was asked who he will endorse and the answer was that he was going to support the candidate who inspires him:
“Every time I’ve been asked over the past year who I would support in the Democratic primary, my answer has always been the same: I’ll support the candidate who inspires me, who inspires all of us, who can lift our vision and summon our hopes and renew our belief that our country’s best days are still to come. I’ve found that candidate. And it looks to me like you have too.”
Here is the Video of Sen. Ted Kennedy endorsement:
Sen. Ted Kennedy answered all the points raised by the Clintons, point after point, remark after remark giving a neat summary of all the criticism that the Clintons have been shooting towards Obama since the start of the campaign. Specially since Barack Obama’s win in Iowa which shocked Hillary Clinton’s campaign and made her and her husband Bill Clinton on the offence. Bill Clinton who used to be a respectable and liked ex-president lately became the designated attacker of Obama, attack after attack after attack, in my opinion he is hurting his wife’s bid for the presidency.
The question here is will this endorsement really help Obama, it will help in some areas and especially with Hispanic voters, who Obama’s campaign have been lagging behind Hillary Clinton. Any candidate would love to be endorsed by Sen. Ted Kennedy, but will this help Obama in a huge scale, I do not believe so. Only one week left for the Super Tuesday anyway, we will wait and see, although I really wish to see Obama winning, but I believe those “Super” delegates Hillary Clinton has will save her in the end of the day and she will be the “Democratic Party Presidential Nominee”.

This guy keeps amazing me every day, he amzingly hijacked the format of the (Brown & Black Forum) to ask himself a question. Really clever and he ended up actually asking a pretty good question.
Have a look at the following video:

This guy is amazing, he is the only candidate who addresses real issues, and not afraid to speak his mind. I am not an american, but if i was one, i would difinitly vote him. Actually Any democrat is better than bush, but if you would want to choose from the democratic party’s candidates he is by far more honest and more aware of what’s really going on. He’s the real deal. Watch his responses in the last debate, watch until the end of the video, very interesting stuff.
