Dean to Announce Health Care Effort
Thanks for this effort. All voices must be heard in order to get a health care system that is useful.

http://politicalwire.com/archives/2009/03/25/dean_to_announce_health_care_effort.html

n a conference call later today, Greg Sargent reports that former DNC Chairman Howard Dean "will make a surprise announcement, unveiling a major new health care campaign that will gear up his political operation to pressure the White House and Congress to preserve a public insurance option as part of health care reform."

"Supporters of Dean -- a former doctor who has been looking for a meaningful way of impacting the coming health care reform push -- were furious with Obama aides for not giving Dean a health care-related spot in the administration. This new project to push Obama and Congress towards a public option is Dean's post-DNC solution, and his political operation could have a real impact on the coming health care debate."

Today's announcement is keyed to the fifth anniversary of Democracy for America, which debuted during Dean's 2004 campaign as Dean for America

3. Thanks, Howard Dean !!!!
No one in the Obama administration is talking about a Public Non-Profit Option.
Without a public non-profit option, there is NO Health Care reform.
