On US healthcare reform: http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2010/03/why-this-moment-matters/37798/

Short and to the point.

I think the rest of the world is saddened to see so many in the US constantly trying to bring it down. These are usually the same people giving the country a bad name internationally. I don't think any one president is going to be the magic cure-all, but you have to start somewhere. And the Bushes... They didn't do anything but put your country years (even decades) in reverse.
