Without struggle there is no progress. So thankful I got to sit down with @AdyBarkan to center people in the struggle for quality health care.
Health care is personal. It's a conversation that needs to be had face-to-face, with real stories — not debate stage quips.
Today, @CoryBooker, the first candidate to sit down with me, shares his story.pic.twitter.com/rKOTavS7zG

'I'm not sure I'll ever get to interview you again, so I'm just going to speak my mind. This topic is life and death for me.'

@CoryBooker, so glad you were able to join me! Loved our conversation — especially the laughs about your hair. Quick question for the people: What aspect of your health care plan are you most proud of? - 9 more replies

He lost me at, "Not going to let perfect be the enemy of good." Here's an idea: fight for perfect. When you have to make concession, you still get "good". When you fight for less than perfect, you get mediocre, at best. We don't have time for mediocre.

I literally just said this to my hubby this morning. There's been too much compromise already, to the point that every political decision winds up on the right wing end of the spectrum. So sick of settling for the crumbs.

Thanks for doing these interviews and all of your strong advocacy Ady. I lost my Mom to ALS in 2008. I will not vote for anything short of Single Payer Medicare For All.

Already Mr Booker says he won’t be able to fight Congress for
@BernieSanders’#SinglePayer#MedicareForAll Bill that he co-sponsored. Instead of tears & words of luv we need a fighter for M4A, global warming & take on military industrial complex. U’ve already thrown in the towel.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

1st of all, I love Ady so much. The courage he has and his leadership in the fight for M4A has been so incredible. 2nd, Bookers answers were unsatisfying to say the least. M4A is going to be hard & we NEED someone who truly believes in it and will fight. He made clear he won’t.
