John Reid Edwards was born in Seneca, South Carolina on June 10th, 1953. John was born to a middle class family. His father worked at a textile mill for years. John attended public schools in Robbins, North Carolina while he was growing up and worked at his father's textile mill himself when he was old enough to do so. He graduated with a B.A. from North Carolina State University in 1974, and graduated with a J.D. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1977.

He owned his own law firm in Raleigh, North Carolina called Edwards & Kirby along with his best friend from college and business partner. Edwards ran for The United States Senate in 1998 as a member of the Democratic party in the North Carolina U.S. Senate race and was elected for the 6 year North Carolina U.S. Senate term from January of 1999 to January of 2005.

In 2002, the first-term Democratic US Senator from North Carolina announced his candidacy for the 2004 US Democratic Presidential nomination. Edwards finished second in the 2004 Democratic Presidential nomination process to Massachusetts Senator John Kerry. Due to his strong showing in the 2004 Democratic Presidential election primaries, he was chosen by Senator Kerry to be his running mate on the 2004 US Democratic ticket for the US Presidency.

As of October of 2004, Edwards is running for the office of The Vice President of The United States on the ticket with Presidential candidate John Kerry against Republican U.S. President George W. Bush, and Republican U.S. Vice-President Dick Cheney.

Who Is Vermin Supreme? An Outsider Odyssey

I want to be a champion for the people I have fought for all my life
-- regular people.

[about the Confederate flag] &quot;This is an issue that I have faced
because of the Confederate flag controversy in South Carolina. South
Carolina, as a matter of compromise, displays the Confederate flag on a
flagpole in front of the state capital. Because I grew up in the South
and believe that the Confederate flag is a very divisive symbol I have
stated publicly a number of times that I believe that South Carolina
should remove the flag from the state capital grounds.&quot;

[on admitting to an extra-martial affair] In the course of several campaigns, I started to believe that I was special and became increasingly egocentric and narcissistic. If you want to beat me up feel free. You cannot beat me up more than I have already beaten up myself.
