In reply to the discussion: Hillary: We must defend ObamaCare [View all]Cosmocat

Bill and Hill tried valiantly to get a universal system set up, got beat up to hell over it over 20 years ago.
And BHO would have GLADLY signed a universal system if congress would have put the bill on his desk.
I like that Bernie out and out calls for it, and I know he genuinely believes in it and would do all that he can to get it, but sorry, it is just talk.
He would have signed "Berniecare" just the same as what "obamacare" was 5 years ago because it was the best that you were going to get out of the worthless ass congress we have, and if he is POTUS from 2017 to 2023 we aren't going to see any different, because he will be saddled by the same worthless ass congress.

Any clue as to why that was? Were you sentient at the time? Do you recall the hatred of the GOP
