LAF finally has a MySpace! Check them out here and make sure to become their friend!

I believe that we all could learn something extremely valuable from Lance Armstrong's life experiences. He has brought a great light to the cancer epidemic not only here in the United States but internationally as well. He has also done wonders for the sport of cycling. He is an inspiration, a role model, and hero.I am an advocate for the LiveSTRONG campaign and will try and keep you up to date with the latest news from Lance, the Lance Armstrong Foundation, le Tour de France and more.

How is the next commander-in-chief going to fight the number one killer of Americans under 85?

I am no longer content to let the cancer question go unanswered.

That is why the Lance Armstrong Foundation is hosting the first-ever LIVESTRONG Presidential Cancer Forum to make sure our next President knows that Americans across the country expect cancer to be a national priority. In Cedar Rapids, Iowa, on August 27 and 28, we will ask Democratic and Republican presidential candidates to go on the record with their plans to fight cancer.

As a member of the LIVESTRONG Army and a leader in the fight against cancer I need you to be part of the LIVESTRONG Presidential Cancer Forum , demanding answers to the cancer question. Here's how you can get involved:

    Get your tickets. The LIVESTRONG Presidential Cancer Forum is open to the public, and tickets are free. Quantities are limited and will be distributed on a first-come, first-serve basis. Submit your questions. Lance Armstrong and MSNBC Hardball host Chris Matthews will ask candidates questions from the public. Spread the word. Ask friends and colleagues to sign the LIVESTRONG Army petition to make it clear that our next President must be prepared to answer the cancer question.

As of this week, Democratic candidates Senator Hillary Clinton, Senator John Edwards and Governor Bill Richardson have confirmed their participation for the Democratic LIVESTRONG Presidential Candidate Forum on August 27. Republican candidates Senator Sam Brownback, Governor Mike Huckabee and Governor Tommy Thompson have confirmed their participation in the Republican LIVESTRONG Presidential Candidate Forum on August 28.

The goal is to get rid of this disease forever. The LIVESTRONG Presidential Cancer Forum gives all Americans the opportunity to ask the candidates "What's your plan? And where does cancer fit into your policies?"

Together, as the LIVESTRONG Army, we can put an end to cancer.

LIVESTRONG,

Lance Armstrong, LIVESTRONG Army
