John Edwards runs for president

Being a little out of touch with US politics my first reaction to this headline was that they must be joking.

In my part of the world the best known John Edwards is the guy from Crossing Over TV show where he allegedly contacts the audiences dead relatives. I was imagining a president that would be contacting everyone’s dear departed nanna’s for guidance on how to run the country.

Though I’m thinking it might be an improvement on the current presidents guidance coming from his father and his chronies.
