Obama's first proposal was for a single-payer system. That proposal lost by effectively 1 vote.
You don't need to link me anything, because I was a grown adult in 08.
"Obamacare" for instance, was coined when Obama won, because right-wing talk channels had been expecting Hillary Clinton to win the Primary and had already coined "HillaryCare" from her own single-payer proposal shed had since the 90s.
Fuckin weird that leftists try to distort recent history as if people weren't fucking alive in 2008 and can correct them.
Fuckin weird that you seem to think 'leftist' is a cogent insult.
It's not an insult - right-wing people don't do that. They make up different wholesale bullshit
Have you not noticed that this happens every time? They always manage to find that one vote to prevent anything truly progressive from happening. If we need 60 votes to make something change for the better in this country, there will be 59 yay votes, with 2 people voting "present."
They dont "find the vote" to do that lol. That's exactly backwards. Democrats are a loose coalition of "not Republican" and some regions of the country elect nominal democrats that are not on board with every party intention
You have Bernie Sanders one example, and Joe Manchin as another, to give a recent opposition.
