Tuhia he haere tonu mo tenei whitianga - I te Hōngongoi 2008, he maha nga papaho korero nui o te US i kii i nga whakapae e pa ana ki te umanga torangapu a Edwards a muri ake nei, me te pa ki ona tupono kia tohua hei hoa whakahaere i te tono perehitini a Barack Obama mo te tau 2008
He aha? Na, i te 7 o Akuhata 2008, i whakaae a Edwards ki te kairipoata o ABC News a Bob Woodruff he hononga roa tana ki a Hunter, engari i whakakahore ko ia te papa o te kotiro a Hunter. I kii te tuahine o Hunter ko Edwards te papa, a ka tono a Edwards ki te tirotiro i te papa ki te whakatau mena ko tana tamaiti te tamaiti. I te Hanuere 21, 2010, i tukuna e Edwards tetahi korero e whakaae ana ko ia te papa o te tamaiti a Hunter.
