*Provides zero specifics on how he plans to bring down the deficit.

Thought I’d be worth mentioning Pete is for Medicare for All.

quote:

Centered on his Medicare for All Who Want It plan, Pete's approach will achieve universal coverage and put Americans back in charge of their health by making care more affordable and giving Americans real choice. Pete's vision will build on this with additional plans to lower the cost of prescription drugs, increase equity, protect and expand access to health care for women, drive innovation, and address many other aspects of care.


Any Pete fans here want to chime in on what he can do erase the deficit?

It is easy to be a fiscal hawk in your party when the current frontrunner is proposing $97.5 trillion in new spending over 10 years.

The Republicans screw up their plans by refusing to allow them to raise the ever loving hell out of taxes...

Someone else mentioned in a thread about how similar he sounds to BHO.
Finally had a longer chance to listen to him this morning and was surprised to hear Barrack in white face. There must be a book someone is passing around.

Pure bullshite. I had more charge of my healthcare before the ACA was implemented than now. Real choice? bullshite. At my age, there are doctors who won't see me because I'm on Medicare.

He also wants to give free health care for all the current and future illegals.

Well the GOP has abandoned any semblance of fiscal responsibility so not a bad strategy to reach those that actually care about the financial future of our country.

How do you reach out to those without providing any specifics? Just mentioning it and having the media carry your water for you as headlines isn’t enough.

You misspelled cock hawk (not that there is anything wrong with that, other than a cock hawk shouldn't be leader of the free world).
