I concede there is high probability that Hillary will be the next President, but we should also realize that she cannot simply impose a national health care system on the US. Any system would have to pass Congress as well, and the current make-up of the US Congress give neither side a working majority. Many of the new Democrats in the House are actually conservative by modern Democratic standards, and getting a comprehensive bill through the Senate would be next to impossible, between a 60 vote majority needed and the power of the fillibuster. Thank God for the Forefathers who devised a system where radical change could not happen easily.

I disagree that she will most likely be our next president, but you are right, those who believe she can just wave a magic wand would be sorely letdown.
She is letting them down already by giving the false impression that it would be just that easy.
I get so tired of her 'elect me and I will see to it that you get all the freebies that you desire' b.s.
She is a sick individual who is attempting to thrive on the gullibility and future disappointment of her supporters.

Not only is there not enough staff for such things, there isn't enough money, and as one here stated , " They wont be making appointments for nonsense issues as they do today". People, is this not a wake up call? Who decides what is nonsense and what is not nonsense? We cant allow the govt to decide such a thing. What if you have had a foot aching for a long time and no one has been able to help you? So , will the govt now say, " Oh, it is just a foot issues its a nonsense thing, let's wait till a more serious problem comes up." ? I assure you if you are the one with the foot pain, you will think it is quite serious. We cannot ever leave such things in the hands of the government, who has clearly shown they cant even run the government on a budget, yet they insist we do. Let us wake up America. This is another slippery slope we are ready to slide down on. And, where will we end up? Just a question to ponder on. Speak up America. It is the only way to stop such a thing.....

I tthink she will definitely get Health Care passed this time around. There will be a new Democratic congress selected in 2008, so she should have the votes to make it happen.

Hillary's plan did not pass the last time because it was too complicated & not well understood. The new plan is much simpler & more flexible. People who have read it are much more ready to accept it, they realize that this country is badly in need of a NHIS. It will not be free, but much more affordable than what is available now & will not discriminate against those who have pre-existing conditions. Check it out for yourself.

It is very impossible for her to impose a national health care. The current Congress would never vote for it.

Yes, I'm afraid she will have that Power.
People are afraid that they will end up like Vince Foster.
Everyone is frightened of the Clintons.
Come to Little Rock and ask Questions about the Clintons.....
Better bring some body guards.
Remember: Obama was so frightened of Hillary, that he requested Security Protection earlier than anyone ever had.
He was very smart to do that. Probably saved his life.

Whats keeps it from happening is the insurance and health care lobbyists, who have our congress by the balls, and yet you have the un-informed gall to celebrate this theft of national health care.
Believe or not you are (through your insurance premiums) funding the uninsured.
Thumb me down, and side with mega corporations who could careless about your health.

You're right. Many people want to see the American system fall to a socilized system, just like Cuba, Enland and Canada's.
(Translated for the illegals, Mucha gente desea ver que el sistema americano caer a a socilized el sistema, apenas como Cuba, Enland y Canadá.)

This was her stance in 1992. The day after Clinton took office she forgot it. Same old promise same old believers.
