|- Put power back in to the hands of the People.
- Fight the rampant corruption that has corroded every aspect of our political system.
- Fight the forces of division and show the people that we can and must unite!
I am a strong supporter of Universal Healthcare. Every American family knows the anxiety and fear that comes from dealing with this country's healthcare system. We have insurance companies whose profit motive demands that they do everything they can to deny you the care you need. They are leaches, and they suck the life out of thousands of Americans every year. Almost every other country on Earth has created a successful Universal Healthcare system, and as the wealthiest nation on Earth, it's absurd to think that we can't do the same.
