   Jobs and healthcare are not mutually exclusive. There are hundreds of rural areas that have no healthcare options. They need clinics (construction), nurses(education), and doctors. All thus goes along with student debt reduction.

   It is the truth President Obama should have made this decision long time ago and pursue health care reform. I believe that Health Care Reform itself has affected the economy. Still we are treating the subject with no interest and it should be brought front and center.

   All things to all people....he is such a disappointment. It went from "yes we can' to "yes you will".

   My health insurance went up another $384 dollars this year for the same level of coverage I had last year, even though it doesn't even pay for my cholesterol tests. I pay almost 1/5th of my gross income so people who invest in for-profit insurance companies can make money off of me. And then some idiot senator stands up and says that we have the best medical system in the world. Not by a long shot. Is anyone else in my position interested in marching on Washington? Let me know if there's a bus leaving from Oregon.

   I think the President touch on all issues that is very important to our country. The question is will the party of No work with the President to move this country forward? The country was in such bad situation President Obama had to take on many issues to keep the country from falling. The President isn't God we as Americans have to work with him too many people are suffering , there is no times for games. I think there is too much negativity out there and not enough faith and hope.

   On a second note what is the situation regarding the four your men allegedly tampered with The Louisiana U.S. Senator's telephone. Is this another Watergate? This is a interesting story would like to know more about it.. I will be watching your TV show for more updates.

   Sincerely,
