| | Edwards is Kerry’s Pick For VP | American International Automobile Dealers | (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15) |
 | | Some Democrats were concerned that Edwards, whose only political credential was a single term in the Senate, lacked the experience in international affairs, particularly in wartime, to be a credible candidate to assume the presidency in the case of death, resignation or removal. |
 | | Edwards made trade, jobs and the economy the centerpiece of his campaign, questioning Kerry’s vote on NAFTA but not pledging to seek its repeal. |
 | | Edwards, 51, was born in Seneca, S.C., and grew up in Robbins, N.C. His father was a mill worker, and he announced his presidential campaign from the factory, then closed, where his father had worked and where he had swept floors to earn money for college. |
