Over & over. And everytime stopped by republicans.

How Obama ever got ACA passed is a rather stunning credit to him & those who made it happen, at all.
Tho the policy we got wasn't the total sum of what he originally wanted, it was more than all the attempts over many many years in various fragmented forms.
It is the groundwork where we now build from.

Healthcare is not a far left thing.
It is a Democratic thing.
