Edwards campaigns to make Memorial Day an antiwar statement -- This is risky and could backfire.
From The Washington Post:
Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards is calling on his supporters to turn this year's Memorial Day into a day of antiwar activism, saying that the best way to honor the troops is to demand an end to the Iraq war.
_______________
Even though former Sen. John Edwards has made his opposition to the war in Iraq a central part of his campaign, this move is risky. Because the risks may outweigh the rewards, if I were Edwards I would not have approved this message.

Check the site his campaign has put up to support this effort. The things he suggests doing include gathering items for care packages for the troops, signing petitions and praying. I like the approach. www.supportthetroopsendthewar.com
