2. This program was very successful in VT.
One of the benefits of having a physician as a governor.

I think Cuba has a lower infant mortality rate and better health care than the U.S. Maybe this (Dean) is an opportunity to fix our health care system and give all Americans health care.

Come to think of it, the ratio of doctors to patients (IIRC) in Cuba is way lower than in the U.S. We seem to have an elitist medical system that serves the rich, but not the poor.

It's embarassing to compare our country to third world countries, but that is what we have become.

Here's an issue: How does your candidate feel about the fact that drugs are available much more cheaply, if they are purchased in Canada. These are the same drugs that are sold by U.S. pharmaceutical companies in the U.S., but for several times the price.
