He can't work miracles all at once. It takes time to get health care for everyone. I see on some live chat rooms people from other Countries hate that America claims to be the best and looked up to or sets an example to other Countries. I also hear a lot of the people Obama called out to send in their vote on the internet didn't even live in America. They voted for it from other Countries because they think it's about time America started being like everyone else. How the hell are we going to pay for health care for everyone legal citizen or not and manage to survive as families, single, retired, widowed? and working with income less than the promised only the rich and people making $100,000.00 - $200,000.00 income only to be taxed to pay for it.

How do you know this man that died did not want it that way?

I already acknowledged that may have been a dying wish of his. I hadn't thought of it that way; I thought more that his family made that decision.

However, I couldn't agree with this more:

"Nevertheless, it is probably fair to say that Obama's ideas were too big for America's appetite."

America has never revered education, fiscal responsibility or reality. We'd still like to think we're the best, the brightest and the hardest workers. This ad is classic Madison Avenue (or so it used to be called) generalized propaganda. What's so incisive or special about it? Because someone wrote an OP ED in the Washington Post? Didn't realize you were such a fan of that paper!

Got any proof any of this is true? Or does that matter?
you can take your shots at America, but I am disappointed that you said "we" so you must be an American? Judging by your comment I would have guessed that you were a jealous European

So, while America has not revered education or fiscal responsibility (in your opinion) that does not mean that we need to change our core values.
Just when America is awakening (i.e. fiscal responsibility) is when Obama walks in. The majority of Americans DO NOT WANT what Obama is selling We will find out just how people think in November
