    REMEMBER HISTORY!

    FDR did not run on a platform to create Social Security and other progressive legislation ...

    but his rhetoric fueled the people's movement which in turn pushed his

    administration to pass the historic legislation. 

    Healthcare for all ! Single payer is the only way we can afford it.  And it is the best.
