Joe Biden on Healthcare

I returned from my run this morning with the following news: "Obama Picks Joe"

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not only am I psyched, I am relieved. The other choices were so obviously mediocre. The Democrats needed a hole-in-one, slam dunk VP pick. And, we got one. /And, yes, I am a Democrat.

So, what are Biden's key positions on healthcare reform. I visited his web site and he had me at the second bullet,

Help Medical students find ways to finance their tuition.

His position on universal coverage is reasonable and necessary:
  • Start paying for universal coverage with $100B in redundancy.
  • Start with catastrophic insurance and insuring all kids.
I am going to run around the house doing my hap-hizzy dance now.
