與此同時,奧巴馬也在運用他獨有的,在總統競選過程中被證明行之有效的發動群 眾運動的策略,通過由總統競選積極分子參與的 Organizing for America (OFA)的基層 組織,自下而上地推動醫療製度改革。去年,整個共和黨及民主黨總統候選人希拉 裏就是低估了奧巴馬的這種草根組織的力量,而讓“沒有經驗”的奧巴馬改寫了美 國總統競選的曆史。
自6月份以來,OFA 和Health Care for America Now 等組織在緊鑼密鼓地多方運作, 一方麵在公開場合大造聲勢,如6月25日在華盛頓國會山舉行的推動醫療製度改革的 集會 做電視廣告;一方麵在基層舉行討論會,打電話,征集支持醫療製度改革的簽名, 給少數尚舉棋不定的民主黨議員背上擊上幾掌。這就是美國民主政治體製的一個組 成部分,選民的呼聲還是有相當作用的。
與當地的幾個團體在6月25日乘車去華盛頓,參加有數千人的國會山聚會。 口號是“High quality, affordable health care for all, this year”。
有來自美國各州的工會團體和組織,Acorn, the AFL-CIO, American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, the American Federation of Teachers, Communications Workers of America, SEIU, and UAW 等, 五顏六色的T恤衫代表不同的組織。.

I know what it takes to be a good doctor and what it takes to be a rich doctor(both in China and US). I know the difference between treating a patient, cure a patient and to prevent a human from being a patient. I know how much weight a doctor's intellegence carries in the whole health care delivery system. This debate is not about whether you want the top 10% or bottom 10% students to be doctors.
Actually it's a very good question for politicians to think about: whether they want a system to encourage top 10% students to be medical doctors.

回複tortfeasor的評論:
The problem with the current situation (healthcare) is it gets the worst of both socialism(medcare, medcare and gov subsidize to hospitals, very inefficient and wasteful) and capitalism (denial of pre-existing conditions, doctors are profit driven and not result driven).
The only solution is to create competition to bring out the best of socialism and capitalism. I don't think 100% free-market work well in health care.

Here are my concerns for socialize medicine.
1. Doctors will be compensate much less. Very soon, the only students want to become doctors are the bottom 10% of the class, not the top 10 %. will you continue trust your doctors?
2. medicaid and medicare patients will have to settle with the less benefits. Because there are so many more people need to be covered by government, people who already benefit will have less coverage.
3. Quality of the care. Our doctors will not have options to choose what care to provide to patients, the government does. The government will tell us what treatment will be cover, what will not!
4. all government social programs have cost more than projected, this will efffect whole country's economy. has any government run program work better than private inductry? NO, they all fail.
5. Last but not at least. Talking to some friends from Europe, most of european countries are trying to privatize their medicine program. They have experienced it, they want to be like us.

BO and his friends will break your leg in order to give you a crutch free. Wise up!
There are good or bad politicans on both sides, as long as they truely speak for average folks, we the people need to support them, that's the way how you make politicians work for you other than being manipulated by some vile politicians and caught up in the political game. The way that BO handled the Gates gate showed he is nothing but an empty suit. Americans need healthcare reform, but not the one BO pushs.

Receiving adequate health care is everyone's responsibility not the right. Where does health care dollar go? More than half we spend on the people dying within 6 months. Without addressing the fivorous law suit, end of life care issue and prevention, Health care will cont to sky rocket. Now Obama try to cover everybody by taxing the others, is the worst idea, it soon will bankrupt America. Look at the current "universal healthcare" such as medicare ( for >65 yrs old citizens) and VA system ( for Veteran), they both run poorly on the verge of break.
The healthcare reform should address to cut down the cost, so everybody can afford. Make it illegal if you don't purchase health insurance just like car insurance.
Free health care for all is not good care and it creates more waste and abuse just like any existing public run welfare. For sure it will bankrupt country if it passes.
so far from your article, I don't see any "奧巴馬推動美國醫療製度改革的高明之處".
