I'm honestly curious, how would this uproot what we've accomplished so far? Bernie wouldn't be dismantling the ACA first, then trying to implement a NHS. He would be trying to implement the NHS as a direct sequel to the ACA, which would only be dismantled if NHS is passed (unlikely).

Because Bernie is unelectable in the general.

Hillary's suit looks like she should be on Star Trek.

What's Bernie's definition of speculation?

'Hillary's suit belongs on Star Trek.'

 

[Prodigal Son]

...with dead silence afterwards. I think he was expecting a reaction when he dropped that line.

What? There was laughter, dude.

 

[Battersea Power Station]

Is a "bad look" the new "un-classy?"

 

[Tesseract]

both are doing okay, nothing new tonight except for bernie's pulling hillary further left.

People can go bankrupt from getting a operation they need to live. Does the NHS have that? Watch Michael Moore's documentary Sicko for a better picture on the healthcare system pre ACA.

No, not at all. In fact, my partner (Japanese) got an awesome GP and only had to pay for prescription drugs which were cheap. And if you receive benefits, then the NHS will pay for them (including Dental work).

But that wasn't what I meant. The actual level of care in the UK is criticised all the time. It's strange to hear it be so envied.

 

[ChronotriggerJM]

The stump speech is getting on my nerves a bit :/ But I'm glad they're pushing him on specifics.

 

[Mr Cola]

I always enjoy when they pan to the crowd and no-one is clapping and yet you can audibly hear clapping.

People said he wouldn't be anywhere near Clinton as well in the polls, but here we are.

To be fair that's pretty brief for a man his age.

 

[Brinbe]

That's a good line

 

[SolarPowered]

Everything was thrown at her when she tried to take health care. She was sued because the GOP said that the First Lady didn't have the right to do what she was doing. She was crucified in the media. Big Pharma and Insurance companies went after with a passion. The GOP in Congress destroyed her. It wasn't pretty. She didn't win, but she got CHIPS out of it, eventually.

I think Bernie is the right candidate, but Hillary clearly has done her best on Healthcare. I think that is something the young could appreciate more.

 

[ivysaur12]

It is.

Reminds me of a suit like the one Obama was wearing in China.

Yeah that was a terrible response

Just take a look through history at candidates like him.

 

[RoKKeR]

Just tuned in a few minutes ago but her demeanor is significantly less annoying than it has been in the past.

 

[SURGEdude]

Hillary's laugh line was great. Sounded good and civil.

Nonsense at this point.

He reminds me of Zordon.

That was a great response on women from Hillary.

Bernie: I'll fight for you!!!
Hillary: Sorry, I tried, I failed, I give up, I won't fight for you, I'll do what I can though!

 

[Psychoward]

thank god she dispelled that notion

 

[Rubenov]

These two are 1,000 better than any of the Republican candidates.

Mind blown.

 

[Trojita]

"I'm not answering that question"

 

[Ashodin]

Getting right at "should women vote for you because you're a woman?"

 

[Raxus]

Bernie may have trouble with minorities but Hillary is having a similar problem with young women. It is nice she responded to this. Hopefully Bernie does the same.

Lol dude stop.

Romulans have emotions. She had hers surgically removed in 1992.

You can't just say Bernie voters won't go to hell in a joking way?

 

[SURGEdude]

Decent handling of the Albright debacle. Hillary is very polished. But Bernie sounds better tonight too.

 

[ivysaur12]

Damn.

I would argue that trying and failing to implement a single-payer system will alienate the stakeholders in the health care industry who needed to be managed into the guaranteed issue model, which will undercut their support for Obamacare and lead to it breaking down to some degree.

Part of the point of the Dutch health care model is that we already have a huge insurance industry and it is not actually super feasible -- practically, not just politically -- to suddenly blow it up and implement single payer. I would rather not attempt this and fail.

Why is this still a thing?

I could say the same about Trump.

 

[Ashodin]

Bernie going wide with the response. I ain't just about your gender

 

[GavinGT]

Hillary brought a straw.

 

[Auto_aim1]

Bernie keeps repeating the same thing and doesn't answer how he's gonna do it. He's pretty unconvincing.

 

[Spider from Mars]

I could say the same about Trump.

You should say the same about Trump.

 

[A Human Becoming]

I think Hillary should have said she disagreed with Madeleine Albright's statement.
