1. The 2007 Medicare For All bill is better
The current bill is too much Dodd (and his insurance corporate shill wife) not enough Kennedy.

President Obama Recommends Letters
… to get the health care policy that we want.


Community Meeting 4/3/2007 about Health Care

Conducted by Barack Obama during his U.S. Presidential campaign

Barack Obama in the middle of a meeting during which he was pounded with inputs that we need single-payer: “… if you have a thousand people or a couple of thousand people writing letters I promise you that Congressman or woman pays a lot of attention. They really do. Of course, you’ve got to have a thousand or two thousand people writing letters in every Congressional District or at least in a majority of the Congressional Districts in order to actually implement policy.”

In case you cannot access this audio, more of the transcript is provided in Additional Information, below.

A Summary and Conclusion is included, below.
