"Left, right; red, blue; liberal, conservative. We may not all share the same views, but we all face the same problems, and we should focus on the issues we have in common. Far too many Americans' healthcare and financial security are at risk. And while healthcare as gone from an issue to a problem to a crisis, we continue to stall, argue, and criticize.
