29. You have my heart this morning.
I know from experience that losing the front ones is tough.
:hug:
Some of the others upthread have offered some suggestions. I hope that they may help.

The Corporate Owned Democrats have "hijacked" the term "Universal HealthCare". It no longer means what it used to mean. When the frontrunners say "Universal Healthcare" what they REALLY mean is "Mandatory For Profit Health Insurance"...not the same thing at all. We all know how well that worked for the AutoInsurance CEOs.

I now use the prefix "Single Payer" whenever I mention Universal Healthcare (Medicare for All).
I also will support Dennis Kucinich for as long as possible because his presence in the campaign will spotlight the difference between "Mandatory For Profit Health Insurance" (Hillary/Obama), and REAL single Payer Universal Healthcare. If they (Big Insurance + HMOs) can force Dennis Kucinich off the stage, the difference will be lost on most Americans who will be sold a program that only diverts MORE taxpayer money into the pockets of the RICHEST CEOs in the World.

John Edwards is saying some of the right words concerning Medicare for All, so I am watching him, but ONLY Kucinich has a clear and consistent record on REAL Universal HealthCare.
