In the second video of the series, Senator Bernie Sanders debunks
several myths about President Barack Obama’s healthcare plan in
response
to a question on Twitter. Sanders is genuinely concerned about the
sources many Americans use to get information on the new healthcare
plan. Many are clearly misinformed by “the people who are lying, or, at
best, distorting reality”–people such as Rush Limbaugh and
Sarah
Palin
, to name a few. An average American needs healthcare reform
that
would ensure that America does not remain the last industrialized
country not taking its citizens’ health seriously.
