Nov 2013

I emailed the WH just this morning about them making you "Health Czar" in absolute charge, free of anyone's interference to fix this thing.

Hasn't Barack called you yet, Howard?

They should. This has only been my 10th or more request...

But the DLC doesn't like Howard. He's not businessy enough for them, and they're all over the White House (now tampering with TPP).

maybe Obama should have appointed him to head this up. grasswire Nov 2013 #8

Obama should make him ACA Czar! tblue Nov 2013 #11

That was a great comment by Howard. 2banon Nov 2013 #16

Dean is a little too economically conservative for me, but he is a fighter and we need a fighter. liberal_at_heart Nov 2013 #19

Dean looks like Fringe Leftist FDR radical ... bvar22 Nov 2013 #24

I suppose that's why in the clip he says he supports Hillary, ProSense Nov 2013 #30
