We are spending most of our time in American health care fixing the mistakes that either we in the profession are causing or our patients are without recognizing it causing to themselves.

And I believe that if we can care about whether or not our neighbor has a good job or access to affordable health care for their children and we move to implement the policies that can improve these situations we will unleash vast amounts of human potential and recapture the American spirit.

Since 1994 lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have considered it politically risky to offer a plan to fix America's broken health care system. The American public though has paid the price for this silence as health care costs skyrocketed millions went uninsured and millions more grappled with financial insecurity and hardship.

I mean the fight for a health care bill to cover all Americans and leave none behind is attacked as being a race appeal which is not true but then it's put out in the media as true.

You cannot drive a system that's going to be aiming at preventing illness if everyone is not in it. The whole gaming of health insurance and health care in America is based on that fundamental principle: insure people who aren't sick and you don't have to pay more money on them.

It's easier to lecture women on sexual morality than it is to explain why all Americans shouldn't have comprehensive fair and equal health care coverage.

The greatest public health threat for many American women is the men they live with.

Yes Democrats can prove that America pays more for health care than other countries yes they have won the dispute that private health insurance is needlessly expensive. But what they've lost is the argument that we are a society.

In order to lead a country or a company you've got to get everybody on the same page and you've got to be able to have a vision of where you're going. America can't have a vision of health care for everybody green economy regulations - can't have a bunch of piece-meal activities. It's got to have a vision.

Obama seemed poised to realign American politics after his stunning 2008 victory. But the economy remains worse than even the administration's worst-case scenarios and the long legislative battles over health care reform financial services reform and the national debt and deficit have taken their toll. Obama no longer looks invincible.

America doesn't have health insurance.

I think all Americans believe in human rights. And health is an often overlooked aspect of basic human rights. And it's one that's easily corrected. The reason I say that is that many of the diseases that we treat around the world I knew when I was a child. My mother was a registered nurse. And they no longer exist in our country.

According to the Privacy Rights Center up to 10 million Americans are victims of ID theft each year. They have a right to be notified when their most sensitive health data is stolen.

The president has declared that the debate over government-controlled health care is over. That will come as news to the millions of Americans who will elect Mitt Romney so we can repeal Obamacare.

We must solve the problem in health care by curbing out-of-control costs that erode paychecks for working families and push quality coverage out of reach for millions of Americans.

We do not have a functioning market in the true sense of the word in health care. That's a layer of transparency that's sorely needed in America.

America's health care system is neither healthy caring nor a system.

You get the health benefits of coffee up through about the first twenty-four ounces. It's the biggest source of antioxidants for Americans and we think it helps prevent Alzheimer's and Parkinson's as well.

America's health care system is in crisis precisely because we systematically neglect wellness and prevention.

For all its terrible faults in one sense America is still the last best hope of mankind because it spells out so vividly the kind of happiness that most people actually want regardless of what they are told they ought to want.

You know American citizens I don't think ever thought that the right to the pursuit of happiness did not include the right to marry the person you love. But for a whole number of Americans gay Americans that happens to be true.

I think people should know more of Africa in terms of its joie de vivre its feeling for life. In spite of the images that one knows about Africa - the economic poverty the corruption - there's a joy to living and a happiness in community living together in community life which may be missing here in America.

We have a long heritage of freedom that defines America. We believe there is a Creator who blessed us with life liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Happiness does not come from football awards. It's terrible to correlate happiness with football. Happiness comes from a good job being able to feed your wife and kids. I don't dream football I dream the American dream - two cars in a garage be a happy father.
