Supporting the Troops (Edwards “Care Packages” videos)

In the last few days, the Edwards for President campaign release a pair of videos showing the candidate (in Iowa) and the campaign staff (in North Carolina) making Memorial Day care packages for our men and women serving overseas.

These videos are exactly the sort of thing I think of when I talk about campaign videos getting away from public speeches and events and giving people glimpses of what the candidate/campaign is like “away from the cameras.” I especially like the the clip featuring John Edwards in Iowa, as it also features his family and captures him with his son, Jack.

Let’s see more of candidates in more lifelike situations – including with their family.
