Only Senator Sanders among the viable Presidential candidates supports single-payer- the one and only approach that would fix this problem for millions and millions and millions of ordinary Americans. Secretary Clinton has made in clear that she is absolutely against it.
Some people like to say that there is no chance of it getting passed anytime soon. One thing is absolutely for certain is that it will definitely NEVER - EVER happen if we agitate against it. It can only happen - maybe or maybe not in the near future if we agitate for it. Sen. Sanders is agitating for it. Secretary Clinton is agitating against it.
