Obama Health Reform Address Close – “The Character Of Our Country”
July 132010
At the close of an address on health reform to Congress, President Obama reminds people: “I will not waste time with those who have made the calculation that it’s better politics to kill this plan, than to improve it.”
“If you misrepresent what’s in this plan, we will call you out,” he adds. “And I will not accept the status quo as a solution. Not this time. Not now.”
He also talks about a letter he received from late Senator Ted Kennedy that was written in May, but delivered to Obama after Kennedy’s death. In the letter, Ted called health reform “unfinished business” but was confident that “this is the year” that it would pass.
Obama also remarked on when it is necessary fo government to step in.

I am new to YouTube, and, as such, I don’t know how to create a video. Therefore, I am uploading a copy of a video I got from YouTube member, “NakedEmperorNews.” I hope you don’t mind; I’m not trying to violate copyright, as this is a spare “backup copy” file copy for personal, educational, non-profit purposes to save the nation. (As an aside, I just realized that this is a public hearing which is probably in the public domain, and not able to be copyrighted, but I still give credit to the source herein and am of the undersanding that the owner wanted this passed on.) I converted it from FLV to AVI, and I am converting it back to FLV upon upload, so it may lose some resolution integrity. Sincerely, Gordon Wayne Watts, Lakeland, Florida, USA
