Obamacare was supposed to be the first step. Democrats play the long game, it's called "strategy".
I didn't say it was, I literally said it was the first play in the long game.
Democrats who don't sponsor/cosponsor legislation that seeks to enact universal healthcare don't support it. If they did, they would
His next gambit is to tell you to cite it, even though it's literally on the same page.
You mean that incomplete bill that Bernie says is just a symbolic bill put out to further the discussion? You do realize that Republicans were the ones who blocked the bill from further discussion, don't you?
Any bill that seeks to enact universal healthcare. If Democrats supported it, they would sponsor one or cosponsor some other one they support. You're claiming the Democratic party has supported universal healthcare for 80 years, but more than half haven't signed on to any bill that looks to implement it. You believe they support it because that's what they told you. Actions speak louder than empty words.
It wasn't a bill that sought to enact universal healthcare. Sanders even said so himself. Sorry but you got caught up in your own fake news story. The bill was in fact an action of empty words. I'm so sorry to burst your bubble of happiness.
I'm beginning to think he just responds to shit without reading it. He's probably got a neckbeard.
S. 1804
It was an incomplete bill and Sanders said it wasn't going to pass this year. What else was it but a symbolic act filled with empty words. I can't help that you fell for it. That's not my problem.S. 1804
"To establish a Medicare-for-all national health insurance program."
Congress.gov full text of bill
Thou shalt not speak unkindly of Saint Bernard. The wrath of the Sandernistas will be visited upon you.
It proves he supports it. If someone asked "What proves Sanders supports universal healthcare?", you can cite S. 1804 as evidence. You can't do that with Feinstein or Pelosi or any of the rest of the establishment Democrats because they don't actually support it
It was a symbolic bill. It got a record number of cosponsors. Sorry you don't understand what that means.
Where's the 80 years of evidence that shows the Democratic party supports universal healthcare?
psssssttttt - hillary beat him to that punch by 20+ years
Why did Kamala Harris, Elizabeth Warren, Al Franken and others co sponsor it then? Does that reflect poorly on all of them too?
