WASHINGTON, January 3, 2003 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Two more notorious pro-abortion Democrats, veteran Representative Dick Gephardt and neophyte Senator John Edwards of North Carolina, have announced their intention to seek the U.S. Presidency in 2004.
"I run for president to be champion, to be a champion for the same people I fought for all my life: regular folks," said Sen. Edwards, who is in fact a multimillionaire trial lawyer. According to Issues 2002 http://www.issues2002.org/Senate/John_Edwards.htm#Abortion
Edwards voted against maintaining the ban on military base abortions (June 2000), against banning partial birth abortions (Oct. 1999), and against disallowing overseas military abortions (May 1999).
Meanwhile Rep. Dick Gephardt of Missouri will take a second run at the White House after his failed 1988 attempt. The two will join Democrat Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts who has been compared to failed 1992 candidate Michael Dukakis, and Howard Dean, the arch-liberal governor of Vermont. Sources say that South Dakota Sen. Tom Daschle is also "leaning" toward running.
