Obama had enough votes for universal healthcare. Obama himself went behind closed doors with healthcare lobbists and written the affordable care act. That's the truth!

?

There were exactly 60 votes for Obamacare. He probably could have gotten a public option though with reconciliation but I highly doubt single-payer or anything like that was ever in the cards.

 

[Your Entertainer]

That was not a good exchange for Hillary

Don't see how you can deny that moderators are trying to nail him at this point

 

[Wafflecakes]

Bernie pointing out that his plan isn't all that detailed.

 

[royalan]

Bernie, retreating to your stump speech like this is embarrassing.

 

[Dicktatorship]

lmao the segway back to the super-pacs

 

[Makai]

Booooo Sanders. Terrible.

 

[ItIsOkBro]

Feel the bern Andrea

Noooo not the super-pac speech

 

[Prompto]

That was a bad answer from Bernie.

 

[AlphaDump]

lol of course Obama was going to veto taking away his bill.

what are you even saying? the republicans wont let anything pass like the ACA in congress. they are currently trying to repeal it.

 

[And_Gignac]

Yeeeeees drag her back. What the fuck with these questions, is this a debate or the roast of Bernie Sanders?

 

[Miracle]

That feel the bern moment.

 

[NYCmetsfan]

bernie is completely wrong on why we don't have single payer. Its mostly the american public who has status quo bias

edit: Hilary is kinda hitting similar to this.

Hilary is way more realistic here on how health care moves forward in the uS

 

[Clydefrog]

smugllary

 

[ElectricThunder]

Hillary: "Incremental, settling progress or bust---be glad for the hazy plateauing or else it'll go back to worse!" One wonders how that stellar approach to public policy would've worked for civil rights and all else of dramatic note that move the country forward...

 

[Dominican Power]

FEEL THE BERN!!!!

 

[User 463088]

No Single Payer is because of Citizens United.

Sure....okay.

He lost this exchange.

 

[loki 16]

Oh, that was shit Bernie.

He threw his state under under the base.

Because he is telling the truth?

 

[OldAsUrSock]

what are you even saying? the republicans wont let anything pass like the ACA in congress. they are currently trying to repeal it.

Let me clarify. Of course Obama was not going to let them take away the ACA.

 

[watershed]

Bernie's position is divorced from reality.

 

[Smiley90]

audience so pro-Hillary lol

I DID SOMETHING IN THE 90'S REMEMBER

 

[B-Dubs]

That was not a good exchange for Hillary

This is what happens what happens when you become a competitor, it'll only get worse if he hits the general. If he can't handle this...

 

[Poker Face]

I wish Bernie would call her out on her Super PACS

 

[billeh]

There are a lot of reasons, it was a shit concession to UHC, for one.

 

[Linkyn]

I really dig Bernie's optimism, but I just know that little to nothing of that could actually go through.

 

[airmangataosenai]

Sanders pandering hard with that last non answer. Jeez.

 

[SimpleGamer]

Malley: "Let them fight"

 

[Slayven]

Bernie, retreating to your stump speech like this is embarrassing.

It's about ethics in income inequality

 

[jerry113]

Yes, I'm sure you do know about how much money influences politics, Hillary.

 

[Epsilon-delta]

I think Hillary just made a gaffe.

 

[Your Entertainer]

He handled it well imo

 

[ItIsOkBro]

Yes you do know Hillary

 

[Orbis Tabula]

Vote Burmy Sanders 2016

 

[AlphaDump]

Hillary is exactly right here.

 

[disastermouse]

I do. Trying to pass an expansion to Medicare will be extremely hard to get through this Congress or next.

Hillary: It's too hard to do the right thing: Vote Hillary!

 

[HanShotFirst]

Campaign finance is an incredibly important issue but save it for when the questions asked.

 

[Copper]

is it just me or is hearing Hiliary's voice unsettling?

 

[sssstententen]

No Single Payer is because of Citizens United.

Sure....okay.

He lost this exchange.

Is it really that hard to link the idea that money in politics/lobbying = votes against single payer?

 

[ATF487]

Lol o'malley

 

[Wafflecakes]

This is what happens what happens when you become a competitor, it'll only get worse if he hits the general. If he can't handle this...

Yup. He isn't even capable of handling softballs without falling back on his 3 talking points.

 

[Tesseract]

Hilary is exactly right here.

you mean her financial masters

 

[mr2xxx]

What are they arguing about? Seems like Hilary and Bernie would work towards universal healthcare.

 

[Operations]

Yes! That's exactly it Hillary. Simply impossible to get the fucking votes. Just not possible! Bernie needs to get a reality check

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

Hillary finally pointing out "Bernie, your plan has a zero chance of passing."

Bernie with that weird: "PACs ruining America, I don't even have a backpack."

 

[Loakum]

silly gif. prove me wrong? They had over 50 senators that wanted universal healthcare. Using the nuclear option (in which they did for the affordable care act) IT WOULD HAD PASSED! Sorry to ruin the gif for you.

 

[foxtrot3d]

No Single Payer is because of Citizens United.

Sure....okay.

He lost this exchange.

Pretty much.

He keeps making grand statements without getting into the specifics of how he'll get them done. Hilary is right that the Republicans would never allow him to pass through a universal health care bill and he has no counter to that.

 

[Smiley90]

lol as if Obama didn't try to find common ground, it does not goddamn work

 

[Nazgul_Hunter]

Hillary: It's too hard to do the right thing: Vote Hillary!

Bernie: Everybody gets a unicorn! Vote Bernie! Two can play the game and add nothing. Please engage in substance, instead of reductive strawmen.

 

[lenovox1]

Don't see how you can deny that moderators are trying to nail him at this point

They haven't been butting in during this exchange.

 

[Orbis Tabula]

Lol, did I just hear O'Malley mumble "Great questions" off cam. Poor dude.

 

[And_Gignac]

It's about ethics in income inequality

Grossest post in this whole thread. Congrats!
