Obama didn't even want this obamination. Basically he settled for it. He should have stated that its time for America to go UHC route. He would have been attacked unmercifully by the right and the conservative talk show hosts. However, he was anyways.
But he should have taken a unique approach:
(1) Constantly flood the airways with interviews of average Joe's from Canada, UK, Germany, France, Costa Rica etc. Have them state their name, education background, profession, political affiliation (if have any) and then there views on their healthcare system. Guaranteed they would find a ton more satisfied then not. People would have related better. I bet you might find 1 or 2 Joes that would prefer US styles private system.
(2) Conducted independent surveys in these nations, providing the questions online for everyone to view to determine bias. I guarantee hearing people's opinions would be huge!
(3) Every hack from Pelosi to Reid had tradegic stories of the uninsured. One hack talked about a women having to use her dead sister false teeth. Instead of them telling the stories (which people don't believe), constantly flood the airways with ACTUAL STORIES from the SOURCE. Americans would relate.
(4) Talk about how much businesses would SAVE. If you don't believe UHC is a huge savings to business, then your either a political hack or ignorant. US businesses are at an enormous disadvantage because healthcare costs them so much. Take away the healthcare burden on business and we are talking about the biggest sustainable stimulus package America has ever seen! CONSTANTLY LET PEOPLE KNOW this, you want a permanent stimulus, well here it is on a silver platter!
This would be a mark for success, instead Obamination might put us into a depression!
