“No matter how we reform health care, we will keep this promise to the American people: If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor. Period. If you like your health care plan, you will be able to keep your health care plan. Period. No one will take it away. No matter what. My view is that health-care reform should be guided by a simple principle: Fix what’s broken and build on what works.” 2009 President Obama at the AMA.

Simple beats complex in the area of political soundbites. I hope this is not a problem for Democrats, but it very well could be.
