She's the physical embodiment of everything wrong with the democratic party. We need new blood up there.
-
Facts: Pelosi helped succeed in getting every American access to health care. Ryan couldn’t even steal it away
-
She's blocked single payer/does not support it. She also accepts donations from Blue Cross/Blue Sheild, a gigantic for-profit health care company. While I don't deride her ACA contributions, she's hardly a proponent of the system we desperately need as she will lose out fiscally
-
Agreed. The problem is capitalism.
-
The problem is corruption & a lack of ethics!
-
Yes. This is a lot more succinct overview than my quick criticism.

Are you seriously suggesting that a freshman congresswoman should be speaker of the house? I like AOC but they would eat her alive.

Eat her alive? Wow, are you afraid the patriarchy can’t handle AOC and her progressive ideas that the future majority are already behind?

She had her chance already. Step aside for someone else.

The House flipped dem last night. She had her chance and she’s succeeding so she stays.

This is why I said what I said. She served in that role and didn’t produce results.https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/11/10/the-decimation-of-the-democratic-party-visualized/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.aa6361405524 …

ACA was because of her

The ACA fell short especially since we had a super majority at the time. We should have pushed for a pubic option (for Medicare). Instead we played politics and got a water downed republican healthcare plan...the ACA was ok but not far enough.

Nobody would ever say ACA was perfect/Lieberman stopped public option/it provided healthcare for millions & those with pre-existing cndtns/how about fixing it rather than tossing it/gop has only worked 2 destroy it piece by piece
