Edwards Starts Online Petition About Taking Money From Lobbyists

John Edwards is taking his call to Americans not to vote for candidates that accept money from lobbyists on step further by starting an online petition.

Edwards is seeking 1 million signatures at the website America Belongs To US.

For too long, our political leaders in Washington have looked the other way as lobbyists and irresponsible corporations have fought against efforts to achieve real change in America. Enough is enough.

We need a president who will fight for the American people every day. We don't need a defender of political contributions from Washington lobbyists and irresponsible corporations. The truth is, America belongs to us.

Please sign the “America Belongs to Us” Pledge, and join together with Americans from all across the country who are taking a bold stand to make sure that our next president belongs to the people -- not the lobbyists.
