Evangelicals support single-payer health care-2/3

An Evangelical from a Conservative Background, Dr. Rocky White is Not Your Typical Advocate for Single-Payer Healthcare
While there are differences between the healthcare plans offered by Democratic presidential opponents Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, neither of them is proposing a single-payer system of national healthcare. That's despite the endorsement of precisely such a plan last December by the American College of Physicians, the largest medical specialty organization. We speak with Dr. Rocky White, a passionate, if unusual, advocate for a single-payer health insurance program. He describes himself as an evangelical from a conservative background and is on the Board of Directors of the nonprofit Health Care for All Colorado. [includes rush transcript]

Good for you. Have you found one good "site" or source of information that I could e-mail around to the many, many Christians I know? (I'm in OK).

A very message. I am a born-again Christian. I find much opposition among Christians. I don't care what anyone else says, even my pastor. Single-payer is a Christian value. It is not communism. I read that book, The Healthcare Meltdown by Dr. LeBow MD. I use to be a republican; I am now a democrat. Advocating single-payer doesn't make someone non-republican.
