Lance Armstrong Applies Political Pressure

Lance Armstrong's Livestrong foundation is sponsoring several "presidential cancer forums" Monday and Tuesday August 27th & 28th in Cedar Rapids, Iowa in a high profile drive to make cancer research and prevention a priority for the next president. I don't understand why cancer research and prevention is not a national priority given the alarming rate of cancer in American society and I applaud Lance's effort to force the issue. With all our technology and a national effort I firmly believe that a cure can be found and found quickly.
