Where would you like to see Kerry/Edwards campaign on Labor Day?

Labor Day is the traditional beginning of the fall campaign, where do you think strategically you would like Kerry/Edwards to be on that day?. As for me I would love to see Kerry open his campaign in Independence, Missouri, home of crusty old Harry Truman and Have JK give a "give 'em hell" speech. As Harry said, "I just told the truth and they thought it was hell." Then from Missouri, I would think he should go to a Labor Day event somewhere in Michigan.

As for John Edwards, given his strong showing in the Georgia primary perhaps he could do what Jimmy Carter did on Labor Day, 1976, open his campaign in Warm Springs, Georgia at the cottage of Franklin D. Roosevelt. This way JK and JE can pay homage to two great democratic presidents, FDR and HST. From Warm Springs I think Edwards should then go to Labor Day events in Wisconsin: Milwaukee, Racine or Sheboygan where there are lots of Union members.

Your thoughts?
