The Trial Lawyer

John Edwards earned his millions as a trial lawyer. Edwards was a very talented lawyer that scored big in a bunch of cases.

Many believe that Edward's former job can be a slight positive and also a huge negative for his run for the White House.

It is a slight positive because Edwards would receive funds from trial lawyers for his campaign.

It would be a huge negative because many people dislike trial lawyers.

Some believe that a trial lawyer is not the right man for the job of managing America's huge economy. Others slightly disagree and feel that a greater inquiry into how Edwards actually managed the cases he was involved in is needed.
