Nancy Pelosi and health care

In this article it deals with the ongoing debate about health care and the reform. This article highlights the beliefs that Nancy Pelosi has about the health care reform. Nancy Pelosi is the speaker of the house. In addition shes a far left democrate that has a strong voice in D.C. Even though the debate about the healthcare reform has slowed down Nancy is continuing to voice her opinions. She is in support of a government run health care system. If Pelosi could have it her way she would not leave any options for the health care agency's and the American citizens. She would be in favor of the government controlling the overall healthcare.The fact that she is voicing her opinion is very interesting. Even though Barack Obama is a democrate it seems like Pelosi and him disagree on some of the topics involved in the reform. She continues to state that the public option is a huge aspect of the reform. Whereas Obama officials claim it is not a huge topic. I think that Obama is trying to ride the middle of the road. He does not want to step to far left with Pelosi and lose the support of many other supporters. I think it is evident he is worried because he keeps using advisors to make his remarks about the topic. This is a classic example of a president trying not to go one way or the other. They try to satisfy both parties to an extent. Throughout his campaign and presidency Pelosi has been a great supporter of Obama. She still is but it is evident that she wants him to push further left than he is comfortable going.
