Universal
Health Care
"Well, look, I
believe in universal health care, as does Sen.
Clinton. And the point of the debate, is that
Sen. Clinton
repeatedly claims that I don't stand for
universal health care. And, you know, for Sen.
Clinton to say that, I think, is
simply not accurate. Every expert has said that
anybody who wants health care under my plan will
be able to obtain it."

How Do We
Pay for Universal Health Care?
"And the Bush tax
cuts--people didn't need them, and they weren't
even asking for them, and that's why they need
to be less, so that we can pay for universal
health care and other initiatives."

Mandating
Coverage for Birth Control
