4. Sorry, don't agree...
None of them have really done anything about the health insurance industry. They took money...so what. They ALL take money.

I want a candidate with the strength and the balls willing to stop them in their tracks...I want one who says that even though hospitals will treat patients...that the health insurance industry must follow suit by paying for whatever care the patient needs.

Remember that girl who died because an insurance company denied a transplant...I think this was in California a few months ago. Where were ANY of the candidates? Why didn't they stand by the family? NONE of them where there and have never been there for folks like us who are at the mercy of health insurance companies.

For example, if a patient needs a bone marrow transplant to save his or her life, the insurance company is NOT allowed to deny payment. That ought to be a law.
