Ed Schultz has been the one person who has focused on the plight of the middle class for the past two years. He has done so on his nightly show with the facts and charts and backed up sources. The disparity of income for the 1% over the middle class with charts speak with clarity on the subject matter.
Ed and his show were instrumental in helping President Obama win reelection. He and President Clinton were able to demonstrate to the American people exactly what the middle class has been up against and that Mitt Romney and the republican party if elected were not about to change the status quo. He also exposed the attempt by the republican party to supress the vote in several states during the November elections. That mobilized the voters to be vigilant, have patience and stay in line as long as it would take.
Ed Shultz continues to push the cause of the middle class and is articulate in his report of how the republicans in congress continue to obstruct the President and the country from moving forward. Ed and I have a lot in common as I wrote a past commentary here in politidose dated 11/23/07 titled Corporate America: Leaving The Average Ameican In The Dust. For those whose follow politidose, they know Ed and I are on the same page.
