    To Whom it may concern,

         I have written to the White house and contacted President Obama via email in regards to the Health Care system. My plan is to get 10,000 signatures without the support of the President. With the support of President Obama I would like to triple that number if not more. I believe it is vital to show the United States Congress the people's support for after all the government is by the people for the people and this is something that has been drifting farther and farther away for many reasons. I believe the system and the idea wanted by president Obama scares many people because it is something new and not enough information was released and that is what i want to start out with and get the word for what is going on?

The idea is to first get the Bill passed to allow a government run Universal health care system. Many fear from commercials endorsed by not only republicans but those who have no need for it and do not want to lose profit such as big drug companies. See unlike the rest of the world where it is illegal to profit on peoples' life and if they will live or die ,America has a system where the doctors, who take the same oath as the same doctors in many foreign countries to always take care of peoples' well being, doctors IN America and anyone who serves the peoples' health in America turn and make a profit and do not want to loose this. So the AMA along with the politicians and big drug companies are trying to scare the people by using the media which I mentioned in another article and is frankly corrupt to scare normal hard working Americans not to have support Universal health care. With this if the Bill is not passed in August more or less their will never be a program that is universal in America. See the tactics they(big business and politicians weathly) have employed is to trick so many into believing that America will be using a system like Canada or a hybrid version of it with a single payer which is a big word for the Government will be in charge. What they fail to say is that the true plan is and laid out in the thousand page synopsis and that this plan will adjust to suit the best possible health care system. Their objective is that they will create a government health care system that is a Hybrid Swedish/American system and unlike the Canadian system it has worked excellent for those governments who employed these systems.

They say the country will go bankrupt, they say the new health care system will have huge lines, they say it will not work. What I say is the country will not go Bankrupt because President Obama has the best staff surrounding him for the economy and if needed President Obama will make cut into the Military and other temporary cuts. This health care system is not for those over 60 granted but it is for our youth to keep Americans strong and healthy. Our president is much like Kennedy in that he asking for not only the support of his party but for the support of American citizens who wish to see their children and grandchildren be able to see a doctor and get checked up or get a surgery that is needed. The youth is dying already due to many cannot afford it, and hospitals are turning people away. I have seen it with my own eyes, and it is sad to watch a young child crying in pain and getting turned away because their parents cannot afford to get CHIP fast enough. In the meantime, new fathers and mothers cannot get checked out for things such as breast cancer or other alignments. WHAT HAS OUR COUNTRY COME TO! we must stand united as  President Obama wants not only with our elected officials but from the voices of our fellow countrymen. The president cannot accomplish this alone and this the point I want everyone to understand. he has mentioned it and anyone can review his plan, it is time that we stand with a man who we have chosen as our President to help his ideals and dreams along with many other Americans who are suffering dearly. Please read this and do some research and please consider signing the support paper or internet petition in support of the Presidents idea for a health care system in August and those who are opposed it to let them know that the people of America are in sync with our Leader and those democrats who are helping. Thank you for your time.

God bless America
