Reply #82: So now you believe the race was only about...universal health care? And experiences regarding that? [View All]

If that's the case, why didn't Kucinich win the nomination? He's had a real universal care plan from day one. His plan was single-payer, too, while Hillary's plan only has mandates that people purchase private for-profit insurance. John Edwards' plan was more progressive than Hillary's was, too; his was also universal, but he moved towards single-payer by allowing families making up to 2.5x the poverty line to be covered by medicare.

No, the only way that makes sense is if you think the race was about who had more experience attempting, but failing, to pass health-care reform from an unelected position in 1993. That's silly.
