You know why many people don't trust Obama?

135. A public option or medicare for all could not pass. I love the same talking point on the ACA when

every fact shows he didn't have the votes from the blue dogs. Gee, I guess he couldn't wave his arm and open the red sea to cross.

The TPP whether one is for it, against it, or undecided, most reasonable people should not want it fast-tracked. People need to know the details of the final agreement, and amendments need to be allowed for short falls in the agreement.

What the President got passed in the first two years of his term was Dodd/Frank, the ACA, saved the American car industry, instituted the stimulus package, through the American Recovery and reinvestment Act, the Credit Card Accountability, Responsibility and Disclosure act to protect consumers from deceptive credit card practices, passed Helping Families Save Their Homes Act, through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act he saved jobs in the education arena, and much more, which I am not going to list.

The republicans voted in a block everything thing this President tried to do, and the blue dogs were NOT a willing partner. We had Lieberman, Bayh, both Nelsons, Landreau, and other blue dogs, that were needed for a public option, and the votes were not there. He had two years to get a healthcare bill through, and though it is far from perfect, a lot of people are being helped by it, from the expanded Medicaid, children healthcare, the uninsured, to no denial of insurance for pre-existing conditions.
