JOHN EDWARDS: My dad worked in the mills.

(Text on screen: Born in Seneca, SC)

When I was born, he had to borrow $50 to bring me home here.

When the mills closed, I saw firsthand how devastating bad government and corporate greed can be.

I'm running for president to do what I've always done -- fight for people like the ones I grew up with against the powerful forces that have corrupted Washington. Don't tell me it can't be done.

I'm John Edwards. And I approve this message because growing up here, you never stop fighting. And you never forget where you came from.
