If they ever give national health care these doctors and hospitals will raise their prices up so much just to get the governments money. For example about a year ago I ate a bunch of Reeses peanut butter cups in the morning and I went to the emergency room because I thought I was going to pass out and the Dr. said I had a panic attack and the bills were ridiculous. Can you imagine what they will bill the government.

Brian Austin, I am voting GOP but that is a good combo... I have respect for both men. But it is hard to stimulate economy with tax hikes, and giveaways to people who refuse to help themselves. I'm for helping people who really cannot fend for themselves, but people take too much advantage of the programs... Aloha to all!

Obama doesn't even have enough experience to be Biden's Vice President.

I know his intentions are noble, but why should the rest of us have to pay for people who had children without being able to afford them?

interesting video... it speaks volumes. "jesus christ would not vote for ..."

Don't get me wrong – I love Biden, but can we NEVER say Joe-mentum again?

Biden is again showing the foresight necessary – genetic discrimination is going to become a huge, hot button issue in a few years. It's good to get started on it now.

Joe Biden is the person we need to lead this country. He's got the wisdom, passion, and experience to take on the job and is the best candidate from either party. I'm glad he's beginning to gain momentum. I, too, greatly enjoyed his bio.

Wow the CNN moderators are busy today!

How many conservative posts have you fascists deleted today? What ever happened to free speech in this country?

A vote for Biden or any of the socialist hacks pretending to be Democrats means higher taxes and socialist programs forced on hard working Americans. If people are hell bent on getting access to socialist programs for a third world country like China, Cuba, or Venezuela and leave the United States to those of us who work for a living and EARN what we have.

You lazy sense of entitlement is not welcome here.

Stop the spread of Socialism!

he'd make a great Vice President for Barack Obama

(possible) OBAMA/BIDEN '08!!

This guy has it all over all of the other candidates. I don't know why it is taking so long for others to realize this. He is the man for the job. Biden '08 Go Joe!!!!!!!

State choice- oh you mean like they did with slavery. That didn't work out then either

Joe-mentum is here! He's right on Iraq, can improve our education system, and now he's taking on health care.

Things are starting to move, and I'm glad he's moving them. Keep it up Joe.

Hey Summus why dont you work on CA for gay marriage? Dont push it on us in NC or elsewhere. THis is true Federalism which libs cant stand.

BIDEN 101: 'How to buy votes with taxpayer dollars.'.

Let's kick some ass Joe!

Eric was that suppose to be a bad comment about universal health care? I get my mail everyday but Sunday without fail.

Something else I find odd: Why are republicans willing to give health care to Iraq on our dime but not to americans?

How is it Republicans in congress get FREE health care but wont allow the american people to have access to the same health care?

Keep it up Joe! We're all proud you sticking to your guns don't stopfor anything. Oh and loved your book, very good read.

Let's see... the Government pays $200 for a $10 toilet seat cover, wastes billions of tax dollars every year, horribly fumbles the Katrina response (FEMA), can't manage Social Security – yet yall liberals are howling for a Federal program for Universal Healthcare?

Yeah – why take personal responsibility for you and your children if you have a rich uncle... uncle sam.

Keep up the howling, though – us responsible, independent, cost-concious parents need a reminder that socialists DO exist and support Hillary Clinton.

Since when does not supporting the gay lifestyle equal hate or fear? Sounds pretty close minded to me for people who claim to be progressive thinking.

Also, if people really do want to support high taxes and the "left wing agenda" then perhaps they should relocate to a socialist country where those ideas are embraced. Clearly America (and the principals it was founded on) isn't for them.

Universal Health Care...

...brought to you by the same organization that delivers your mail.

Classic.

What if we like higher taxes, the so called left wing agenda, and gay maariages?

Tis better than spending exceeding revenue, right wing agendas, excessive efforts towards privitizing public good, and unneeded wars.

Frank- would Jesus support your hatred towards gay people? Does Huckabee? Is Huckabee Jesus?

News Flash: Iowa projected to go into recession, have lower access to health care, and have the per capita income drop sharply as people take pay cuts to meet the states eligibility requirements for health insurance.

Scratch Iowa off on my places to live.

Watch Ron Paul win the presidency and dismantle the federal health apparatus and POOF! Whaddya know? People can afford healthcare again!

Wanna solve the US health crisis? ELECT A DOCTOR! Ron Paul, baby!

To Frank in Sayre,PA: Gay Marriages!!! the horror!!! because it really makes a big difference if gay people are allowed to marry. I know that if gay people are allowed to marry, my marriage to my wife will somehow be "less good." I have not heard a single valid argument against gay marriage and I doubt I ever will.
On biden: he seems to be one of the few candidates who "gives it you straight" does that mean anything to voters? we'll have to wait and see

Lil late with this isnt he?

also

A vote for Biden is a vote for higher taxes, left wing agendas and gay marriages. Don't vote for this or any democratic candidate. Support Mike Huckabee.

Posted By Frank,

Being that I like most american wont fall into the tax brackets that will be raised, I'm as left wing as they come, AND I would LIKE to get married one day...You and Huckabee can shove your votes where the light don't shine

Joe Biden is running for President? I thought he retired a long time ago....huh?

Having grown up in Delaware less than five miles from Joe Biden's home, I can attest to Biden's intelligence, experience, and genuine desire to better the lives of ordinary Americans. More than this– he is absolutely the most knowledgable of ALL candidates on either side when it comes to foreign policy. He will absolutely have my vote, and I hope that everyone will take a fresh look at him as a candidate. He's truly a senior statesman.

I'm looking forward to hearing Biden's plan. This guy has great domestic and foreign relations experience that is undeniable.

He's not doing well in the polls yet and hasn't raised a lot of money, but he should be taken seriously.

Obama-Biden '08

Wallace

Biden is the best man for the job, I'm glad people see he is diversed on more issues than just Iraq.

A vote for Biden is a vote for higher taxes, left wing agendas and gay marriages. Don't vote for this or any democratic candidate. Support Mike Huckabee.

Biden seems to really be moving. I'm so glad, I have always respected this great man and think he would make the best President. Now I'm comfortable that he can win with all of this momentum lately. Keep pushing Joe!

The last poll of Iowa out last week indeed shows Biden momentum. He has risen to 6%, much higher to where he was all year, and approaching Richardson!

how fair is this plan. no underwriting restrictions, so now my tax dollars can go to insure the local meth addict, and the local meth addict will pay the same premium as me. If there is a history of diabetes in your family it would make sence to pay a little more because you will probalbly be going to the doctor more. Im not rich and I can afford my own health insurance I dont need the gubment to take care of me.

I wonder how many Billions of dollars this will cost?

I am sorry Joe, but you democrats as always accused the republicans of protecting the Insurance companies. But would this not bale out the insurance companies to a tune of Hundreds of millions of dollars. After All my wife spent two hours in a hospital delivering our child and it had a cost of over 12 thousands dollars. At 6 thousand an hour it does not take one long to eat up that 50k. HAHA......Is there really a difference between a Democrat and a Republican.

The Governmaent needs to stay out of healthcare. The American people are not interested. If it isn't broken, don't fix it!

For all the talking everyone is doing about this issue, FINALLY someone is actually putting forth a real plan and not just saying "we can do such and such" but never defining "such".

Way to go, Joe!

Even if you don't get the nomination, introduce the plan to the Senate!
