He can do what ever he wants as long as he doesn’t get his universal health care plan passed. Anything else we can just roll back in 4 years if it doesn’t work out, but once health care is given out it can never be taken back. If the costs spiral out of control like they have in Mass, the plan Obama based Obamacare on, the only option will be to keep funding it. Clinton was sure we’d have universal health care and it went no where so hopefully this will be the same. ---

So much to say but I won’t. I guess we will see what kind of choice America made in the coming month/years. I will be very curious to see if the jubilation you all feel today holds out for the next 4 years. Because based on this thread and the opinions on this board expressed during the entire campaign process…He will have 100% approval ratings for his entire term. I am honestly surprised that many of you feel he will be the one to make the difference based on his ideas and ability to speak as opposed to EVERY OTHER politician in the past 50 years. But thats ok…Time will tell, hindsight is 20/20 and yeah… ---

What’s really funny to me is all the talk like this was the greatest campaign in history. > **[2020 Presidential Election Interactive Map](https://www.270towin.com/)** > > Create your own forecast for the 2020 presidential election Check out 1988, 1984, 1980, 1972 for Republicans.

He already back peddled and it wasn’t even an hour after he won. lol Should I cancel my health insurance meeting or is that one of the things he is going to back peddle on? I wonder when we will elect our first African AMERICAN President. Do you think Jesse Jackson resents the fact theat Obama’s family owned slaves?
