Health care, and the Democratic race
You can also find previous episodes on YouTube here.
Today we discuss two issues, the state of our health care system and the state of the race. Yes, I know I talk a lot about health care on Politics Done Right. Why? Because it is that important. There are new listeners every day. People get sick every day. Today many will face the pitfalls of our health care system. In my humble opinion, we cannot speak enough about the sad state of our health care system.
My special guest, Tim Danahey of the Tim Danahey Show. Tim Danahey is also a director at Coffee Party USA. His strength is to take complex subjects, talk with experts, and make them comprehensible and entertaining for average listeners. We will discuss both topics in detail.
