JOHN EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT UNVEILS NEW TELEVISION AD IN NEW HAMPSHIRE
"Together" ad features Edwards talking about his plans to guarantee truly universal health care to every man, woman, and child in America
Manchester, New Hampshire– On the first day of “Building a Better America Week,” the John Edwards for President campaign unveiled its latest New Hampshire television ad entitled “Together.” The ad features John Edwards speaking directly to New Hampshire voters about the critical importance of guaranteeing truly universal health care to every man, woman, and child in America.
“John Edwards has been standing up to the insurance companies, drug companies, and HMOs on behalf of everyday, working people his entire life,” said New Hampshire state director Beth Leonard. “When he is president, he will continue to fight them head on. John Edwards believes that we can achieve universal health care because there is nothing we cannot do if we do it together.”
Edwards was the first candidate to introduce a truly universal health care plan in February of this year. He has also been the most candid about how his universal mandate will be enforced.
"Together" is the fourth ad to air in New Hampshire since the summer.

“TOGETHER” TRANSCRIPT
We don’t have universal health care because of drug companies, insurance companies and their lobbyists in Washington, DC.
And anybody who argues that every American’s not entitled to health care, I want them to explain to you what child in this country is not worthy of health care?
You’re going to sit at a table with drug companies and oil companies, and they’re going to give away their power? Right. You have to take their power away from them.
There is nothing we can’t do if we do it together.
I’m John Edwards, and I approved this message.
