HEALTHCARE/JOE BIDEN/OBAMACARE (ACA): “Folks, we all know the Affordable Care Act was a historic achievement — 20 million Americans got coverage. Over 100 million people with preexisting conditions could no longer be denied coverage. That’s amazing. It restored dignity for the parents who couldn’t afford to take care of their children’s health care. And now we need to go to the next step. We shouldn’t start over. And we surely shouldn’t tear it down. To me, giving every American, every American the right to choose a public option like Medicare is the best way to get everybody covered, if they choose.”
