Healthy Americans Act

This video was put together by a PR firm hired by Sen. Ron Wyden with the goal of building support for his bill to create universal health insurance. He's had the bill out for awhile, and I think by and large it's a pretty good bill. But what's interesting to me about this is that the video isn't really aimed at getting the public's attention but trying to get other Senators and Members of Congress interested. Apparently 7 dems and 7 reps have signed on to support the bill, which is great, but obviously way short of what he'll need. I doubt he'll be able to get this off the ground and I'm sure nothing major will happen until there is a new (DEMOCRAT) President in the White House. Even still, his bill could be the foundation they build on in 2009. What do you think, can we have our cake and eat it too?
