Reply #6: I'm not sure if that is true...

about Edwards coming under fire for lack of Foreign policy/national security experience. At least not from Bush/GOP. Remember that he has the same amount of experience as Bush had. Also, we are talking about #2. Kerry has all the experience in that area that is needed.
Are your really going to make the argument that the VP and not not the President is going to run the country? Might be true in Bush's case, but is that what they would want to point out?

However, if Kerry is looking for someone to step into his shoes with all the experience needed and rounded completed with no lacks in leadership then you are looking at Gephardt. I don't see any holes in his background at all.
