10. France is kinda far away.

Go north. Canada is a nice place to live, and we have universal health care. We've had it for decades, and even the farthest left politicians won't even consider privatizing it. :)

4. There it is in a nutshell...

If this speech had been broadcasted far and wide at the outset of this debacle--at a time when paid shills and Teabaggers were regurgitating their "death panels" horseshit--I have no doubt we'd be seeing a different outcome today.

But then, it would never had been broadcasted...

9. Bernie Sander is for "we the people"

I'd support a Sanders/Dean or Dean/Sanders ticket.

My worthless Alaska Democratic Senator voted against the prescription drug re-importation bill yesterday. And he supports the current HCR Bill.

Sanders is getting my campaign contributions.
