Candidates call for war on cancer  

Cedar Rapids, Ia. – Democratic presidential candidates vowed Monday to renew the “War on Cancer” that President Richard Nixon declared in 1971.

New York Sen. Hillary Clinton, former North Carolina Sen. John Edwards, New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson and U.S. Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio headlined the first-of-its-kind forum, organized by the Lance Armstrong Foundation.

Armstrong, the cancer survivor and former bicycle racing superstar, helped question the candidates, who wore his group’s yellow “Livestrong” bracelets.
