The demographic of white, working class fit's me to a "T". I am a Democrat and I live in the state of Kentucky. I have long been a supporter of John and Elizabeth Edwards and still am, in fact I even voted for John in our recent primary.
I, like most middle class Americans, have had dreams of a better life only to have the current administration dash them to the ground. I have seen my wifes job of 19 years go over seas I have watched as my business went under to rising fuel and energy costs. I now, like my wife, have an hourly job that barely keeps the bills paid.
I know that I am not alone and that many millions of Americans are in the same boat as I. I know that we need change and it needs to be drastic and soon. Although I was skeptical at first, having been an ardent supporter of John Edwards, I have studied our presumptive Democratic candidate and I find that he is a fine man with good ideas, some may not be to my liking but many are the change we need. I not only think he will be good for us but for our image around the world. With the right advisor's and cabinet I believe he can turn this country around and that is why this "White Working Class Kentuckian" will proudly cast a vote for Senator Barak Obama for President and I pray others will too.
