    Hope and change? Yikes. Obama was a huge disappointment. That’s coming from somebody that volunteered, made phone calls, and ran the orange county Obama website.

      Obama changed Healthcare forever he gave me the Healthcare that saved my life literally, again trans. His hope and change was a step forward. But you don’t sound old enough to remember what it was like before that. And he was betrayed out of his congressional power immediately after by Joe Lieberman.

          Yuuuuup and it was the only one they could pass because of the one seat majority Joe Lieberman afforded them and he was bought out, the original Kristen Sinema.

          Still saved a lot of lives and still infinitely better than what was before it.
