    She does, she has discussed a number of methods of doing so, from expanding medicaid to all Americans, to doing a few other methods of basically using the government as payee, and negotiator, for insurance coverage that will be applied to every tax payer.

    Will she really do anything? Yet to be seen.

      Remember too that the President doesn’t write the laws, and pretty much every solution for a single payer healthcare solution involves legislation.

      Blaming or crediting a President for something that only Congress can do is a long American tradition, and an exceptionally stupid one we need to get over.
