    bern makes many observations, agree with.
    the problem is his solution are more more of what has been failing us.
    that seems a bit insane to me.

  5. Go back 6 months and a statistical tie was unthinkable. Laughable! Even 90 days ago this would have been far fetched. The Bern has scored a major victory. Clinton and her media mouthpieces won't play it that way, but she just took a gut punch. Crazy world out there, and the 2016 campaign has let the asylum run free. No telling where this goes, but you can bet the farm Clinton corruption we be in full swing, and they're really good at it.

    Hillary won 6 precincts by coin flip. Ironic, that's the same amount she Iowa by.

    Anyone trade here? 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/64 chance.

    "HUBBARD, Iowa — Senator Ted Cruz is often asked about doing away with President Obama’s health care law. He is less rarely pressed by voters on what will replace it.

    But at a middle school cafeteria here, a man, Mike Valde, presented him with a tragic tale. His brother-in-law Mark was a barber — “a small-business man,” he said. He had never had a paid vacation day. He received health insurance at last because of the Affordable Care Act. He began to feel sick and went to a doctor.

    “He had never been to a doctor for years,” Mr. Valde, 63, of Coralville, Iowa, said. “Multiple tumors behind his heart, his liver, his pancreas. And they said, ‘We’re sorry, sir, there’s nothing we can do for you.’ ”

    The room was silent."

    So Obamacare could not save this guy's life, eh? Told you it was a failure.

  10. Well why didn't he have insurance before? Illegal aliens sneak in here and immediately go to a hospital to drop anchor babies. They don't seem to have any trouble getting treated.

    I understand that for a self-employed person, buying health insurance was not cheap, but states have Medicaid plans, etc.

    The issue of pre-existing conditions is a tough one. Instead of ruining our entire system, maybe setting up a government plan for those people would have been a better approach. Insurers could be forced to accept a prorate share of such people, like they do with auto insurance.
