I still think that he and others like Matt Gonzalez and other affiliated Independents are an important role in reforming the role of our bureaucratic and failing government.

Profit in health care should simply not exist. The whole point of company is to make a profit. That means more money if care is denied. Does that make any sense? We pay more per capita than all the other countries with universal healthcare, which is all industrialized nations. Except the United States.

These so-called nuances need to be debated openly. I'd like to see a detailed rebuttal. Friends say "face it, Nader's not going to win and we can't have four more years..." etc. These friends never acknowledge the Democratic Party's influence by corporations (in this case, taxes subsidizing health insurance companies) or the kinds of issues Ralph raises in this clip.

They want to dumb down the daily news and then give us closed contrived debates.Watch them ask irrelevant questions.
