President Barack Obama at a town hall in New Hampshire said:
"I don't have to explain to you that nearly 46 million Americans don't have health insurance coverage today.
Number of those without health insurance about 46 million
A) DIDN"T account for Medicaid eligible Americans.
The Impact of Obamacare, in Four Maps
Oct 31, 2016 - It appears that Medicaid expansion has had a couple of effects:
It helped spur many people Who were already eligible for the program to sign up.
The Impact of Obamacare, in Four Maps
This report echoes earlier studies that show many Medicaid expansion enrollees were already eligible before the healthcare law.
Last year, analysis from the RAND Corporation found that 6.1 million new Medicaid enrollees were already
eligible for Medicaid. MIT economist and
Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber estimates that nearly 9 million new Medicaid enrollees were already eligible.
Millions of Obamacare enrollees already had health insurance
14 million Americans were Eligible for MEDICAID BEFORE ACA!
Obama failed to get 14 million people eligible for Medicaid enrolled.

B) "Sloppy" by 22%!!!
See what Obama DIDN"T EXPLAIN to you that he was "sloppy" as the Biased Politifact admits :
"It's an overcount because it counts non-citizens. Take out the 9.7 million non-citizens and the actual number is closer to 36 million. So Obama is sloppy by saying it is for "Americans" but not accounting for the noncitizens, which leaves him off by about 22 percent.
Number of those without health insurance about 46 million
"Sloppy" by 22%!!!
So just by adding 9.7 million illegals and 14 million Medicaid eligible BEFORE ACA you come up with
near 24 million by Obama's "SLOPPY" accounting or over 52% gross sloppy estimation.
Remember folks "46 million" was the magic number used to convince JuST Dems to pass Obamacare.
In reality that "sloppy" and "unexplained 24 million was used including 18 million people that NEVER NEEDED or wanted health insurance!
Finally.........
18 million under 34 don't NEED insurance but Can afford employers' plans as they make over $50k.
CRISIS OF THE UNINSURED: 2009
" 24 percent of sign-ups coming in among young adults bad news for the Affordable Care Act?
It is, obviously, lower than the targeted 40 percent." the exact group the White House thinks it really, really needs to enroll to make the health-care law work.That's an important target to hit because more young adults in the exchanges would mean a more healthy population, whose premiums could help subsidize the health care of older and sicker enrollees.
One in four Obamacare enrollees are young adults. That’s below the target.
The exact group that don't need health insurance was what Obamacare was counting on AND so he
falsely counted 18 million people that HE KNEW didn't WANT or NEED Obamacare! WHY??
TO INFLATE THE NUMBERS.... REMEMBER OBAMA TOLD US!!
from his book:"Dreams from My Father"
OBAMA: It was usually an effective tactic, another one of those tricks I had learned.
So here we had an INFLATED 46 million when total reality is less then 5 million that really needed insurance!
