Korean American Dr. Paul Song, oncologist and healthcare activist, supports Bernie Sanders

Not sure if this was posted yesterday - but Korean American Dr. Paul Song, healthcare activist, endorsed Bernie Sanders.

Korean American Dr. Paul Song is a radiation oncologist, biotech executive, and Head of the Courage Campaign (a progressive online CA based organization with over 1.3 million active members who fight for a more progressive CA and country). Also a healthcare activist, he gave a rousing speech in support of Senator Sanders in February at a large rally during the 2016 California Democratic Party Convention.


Dr. Song supports Sanders as the “only candidate who believes healthcare is a fundamental human right and that our current healthcare status quo is broken and immoral. Senator Sanders rightfully recognizes that a single payer Medicare-for-all system remains the only true way to guarantee universal comprehensive coverage of all people living in America.”


His entire remarks are worth reading:
