22. What's so great about it? OK, I'll give you a few things;
1)It's going to be simpler and far less bureaucratic than an insurance industry-controlled plan.
2)It would most likely cost less than an insurance industry-controlled plan because of this.
3)It's much easier to eventually expand than an insurance-industry controlled plan, since private profit would not be the driving force.

And it's been us activists who had to PUSH the party to do anything about voter registration(Jesse Jackson was begging the party to do it for years, let me remind you).

And Dennis' problems stem largely, in my view, from the fact that he isn't the favorite of the big donors(the ones who want to pay the party to abandon its principles)and he gets dragged down by the petty obsession with looks that's used to attack him and probably also because some people are uncomfortable with the fact that Dennis is openly spiritual.
