Leland, You do realize that you are assuming that the bill that Obama rammed through regardless of what the majority of Americans wanted, is universal health care. It isn't and never was but you are probably not capable of understanding that. Perhaps if a president, any president not just this one, could actually craft a bill that provided for universal health care, Americans might actually be for that.
