Hillary Clinton Weaknesses

On November 8th, 2016, the United States will finally have its presidential election for the 45th President of the United States of America. This election will be a grating race between a number of political parties and their respective nominees. Two parties are more notable than the others, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party. The Democratic Party has a well-known nominee; Hillary Clinton, who has served as secretary of state, and has been the senator of New York, she has also been the first lady of the U.S while her husband, former president Bill Clinton was in office (Hillary For America). Mrs. Hillary Clinton is mainly a candidate for president because of her experience and great attributes. Alongside Clinton is Mr. Donald J. Trump, who is the respective presidential nominee for the Republican Party. Donald Trump is a well-known billionaire real estate personnel, who rose up to his status due to his great business intellect (Donald Trump Biography). In like matter, there are other nominees for president; however, Trump and Clinton are the two that are most significant and one if not the other will eventually overtake the position as President of the United States. Both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are formidable

Hillary Clinton’s health care plan, informally nicknamed “Hillarycare” by its opponents, was authoritatively known as the failed Health Security Act (HSA) of 1993. Clinton, the president’s wife during this particular administration, proposed this healthcare reform package. This reform created a task force to oversee the project in order to make sure that things were going in the proper direction. The primary goal of the Health Security Act was to propose a comprehensive plan to provide universal health care for all Americans to those that could not afford it or if it was not being offered through their place of employment. This plan is similar to what we know as Obamacare today. The dream that was once held in high regard by President Clinton and his wife came crashing down in just a matter of minutes.

Over the years, the prices have inflated so much that Americans felt the Affordable Care Act was not providing the services it was supposed to; Lower health costs, helps with insurance companies paying out, provide a greater coverage etc. Hillary feels that this area can be targeted to help reduce costs greatly and bring back the meaning of the Affordable Care Act so that the people of America will actually gain from this.

The new and improved health care system in America seems to fall short for many people. The Affordable Care Act made history after President Obama signed it into law on March 23, 2010. This bill is going to create a change in how the current system operates which has kept approximately 46.3 million people uninsured. Those numbers are very disturbing by themselves but if we include all of those who are also underinsured then we add on another 25 million. The ACA is has promised to reduce those numbers dramatically. Even though the plan is to reduce these numbers there will still be people without health care coverage. Some will fall in between somewhere which makes them not eligible for Medicaid but also not able to pay the premiums

The Affordable Care Act, in other words “ObamaCare” has been a train-wreck of a bill that was rushed into law in March of 2010. This law is the basis of the 2008-2012 Democratic-lead government’s platform that would end up securing the 2012-2016 elections for them. This law was not, pushed so fervently to help the nation, as much as it was to help re-election bids. I believe that the Affordable Care act should be repealed, but not necessarily replaced. The whole principle of government mandated and managed health care is inherently flawed, as to do so, the government must lay out blanket regulations and requirements on both insurance companies and the common citizen, that in a lot of ways aren’t beneficial to

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) or know as Obamacare has given our country confusing matters to consider. The argument of misleading the facts in dealing with the ACA have caused an uproar with the American people. Before ACA was even composed we were misled in thinking that the uninsured, instead of health concerns, is the cause of the American people decrease of life expectation. Now that the ACA is in place, people are told they will be fine if uninsured, when in truth they will be taxed. The harshest misleading fact is that gaps in the Affordable Care Act make insurance not affordable to all citizens. We are being led to believe that a single player for health care is not socialized medicine. I believe that things needed to change with our health care and its cost, but misleading the people just causes more confusing, disappointments, and suspicions of what may follow.

Let’s face it, the healthcare system in the U.S. is broken. The passage of the Affordable Care Act (ACA or Obamacare) in 2010, was designed to “fix” the issues and provide access to health insurance for 30 million uninsured and underinsured Americans. This has been the biggest move in healthcare since establishing Medicare and Medicaid in 1965 (Moncrieff & Lee, 2011). My stance on the ACA is pretty bland, at best. As with most things, there are pros and cons in every situation. The main cons I have with the ACA are the costs associated with funding. Funding for the ACA will be provided by cuts to Medicare, as well as, tax increases (Hall & Lord, 2014). Medicare has been struggling for years with funding, so by cutting roughly $500

Those who opposed the placement of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) are now making Congress wish that they would have listened in the beginning. With the way that the Affordable Care Act is set up, it does not allow for our county to provide full medical coverage to all Americans without creating massive national debt. THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT HAS A WEAK FOUNDATION THAT ONLY SUFFOCATES THE MIDDLE CLASS WHILE LEAVING OUR NATION WITH MORE NATIONAL DEBT AND UNINSURED AMERICANS.

On March 23, 2010 former president, Barack Obama, signed the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and made it a law. As many of us know, there are minimal issues with Obama Care, but the question to be posed would be, ‘are there enough systematic errors for it to be repealed?’ Obama did promise that if you agreed with the plan, you could keep it. Of course, there is always room for improvement, and Obama care is not an obstacle nor a negative force towards anything or anyone. There is no reason the ACA should not be diverted or limited in any way. There are pros and cons to everything, but regarding this situation, it is seen to have more pros. The ACA (Obama Care) has made many alterations since it has been in effect. Due to the inadequate reasoning

With every new election comes new legislature the 2008 election had to deal with the hot new topic the Affordable Health Care Act (ACA). Then when Barack Obama was elected into office, he wanted it to be changed to Obamacare. Obamacare and the ACA is relatively the same thing. It is referred to as Obamacare because he is the one who signed for it to be passed. Due to the stress that Obamacare has put on the elderly, state businesses and small local business’s think that the United States should discontinue Obamacare during the next administration.

The Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) is a healthcare program created by president Obama’s administration. The goal of the Affordable Care Act is to make sure every United States citizen has health insurance. The Affordable Care Act provides “affordable” health insurance plans to citizens that do not have any and make about $15,000 a year. While the idea of providing health insurance to the millions of American’s that cannot afford it is great, everything comes at a cost. According to Emily Miller, Obamacare is causing people’s health insurance premiums to rise by around 1 to 9 percent (Miller 15-15). Not only are insurance premiums rising, but ever since the Supreme Court declared the Affordable Care Act constitutional approximately 20 tax hikes have been approved (Battersby). All the aforementioned reasons are helping pay for Obamacare. Although providing health insurance for people that cannot afford it is important, the Affordable Care Act should be revoked because it will hurt the economy.

The origin of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) spans prior to 2010. In the late 1980’s and early 1990’s, universal healthcare was an interest in the United States. In 1993, First Lady Hilary Clinton discussed the Health Equity and Access Reform Today Act of 1993 as a proposal for universal health insurance for every citizen (Mertens, 2010). It was later killed by special interest groups before taking off in congress and deemed too complex (Cohn, 1994). Since President and First Lady Clinton proposal, various members of congress attempted other alternatives to the universal healthcare.

The Affordable Care Act is one of America’s many insurance plans to attempt to lower costs and provide a wider coverage for citizens all over the country. It is a widely controversial topic in America; especially within the past year. Although there are some people out there who support it, there are also those who base their campaigns on getting it repealed; Donald Trump is a prime example of this. When instituting this policy, Obama had very good intentions, but he was far from fulfilling his intended purpose. Today, the ACA has many flaws that affect Americans both as a whole and individually. Obamacare has raised costs for individuals, contributed even more money to America’s debt, is the complete opposite of what President Obama said it would be, it takes away civil liberties, and puts new standards on patients.

As the United States prepares for the coming presidential race in 2016, circumstances throw into question which qualities a candidate should possess in order to be successful and make a positive impact on the nation. Looking into the past, one can surmise that the best leaders must be brave, and filled with indomitable courage, compassion, and hope. The president is one leading millions and making key decisions which have enormous ramifications. As the leader of a nation, he or she speaks out in times of joy and crisis, setting the tone for the entire government body.

A president that truly believes in the [precedent] that our founders put forth all those years ago — that we are all created equal, each a beloved part of the great American story. When crisis hits, we don't turn against each other, we listen to each other. We lean on each other. We are always stronger together. I am here tonight because I know that that is the kind of president Hillary Clinton will be and that is why in this election, I'm with her.
