Joseph Cao, Republican Congressional Representative from Louisiana has an independent streak and won't buckle down to GOP rhetoric. As seen in this video on the day of Cao's historic election in December 2008, this young lawyer already alludes to breaking with the standard Republican rhetoric by declaring his concern for social and environmental issues.
On November 7, 2009, Cao was the only Republican to vote for a landmark healthcare reform bill. While the bill is still widely considered a compromise for progressives and a potential windfall for the insurance industry, Cao's break sharpens the difference between teabagging Constitution Party-leaning Republicans from more independent voices who hope to drag the Republican Party back towards a philosophically rational conservative center.
Cao, who ran as independent in a previous election, was the first Republican to win this district since Reconstruction. He is the first Vietnamese Representative in the history of the United States,

There are a few states that have a lot of corruption and LA does rank at the top.
I would stop short of saying that corruption is restricted to the Democratic Party. Without campaign finance and electoral reform, it is difficult for straight shooters, like yourself, to enter the fray and standing up for the belief and needs of your community.
I think small businesses and entrepreneurs have a lot to gain from a public option, though this bill is FLAWED I agree for more reasons than the one you site. Persuasion - not cohersion holds more sway.
As an entrepreneur myself, living, and dying with the American dream, I believe that universal health care would be the fiscally most conservative act our gov. could take. Go figure...
Joe Cao seems like a real stand up guy. Maybe he can help take the republican party back from the tea baggers and we can actually get some things done.
We appreciate your standing up for your associate.
However, while we enjoy a lively conversation on our channel, we also reserve the right to restrict unbaited insults. Instruction is fine, with hint of links better, but we do not tolerate mean discourse which is something that memama2 appears to be intent upon.
I'm sure that the user will find other channels who appreciate his style of discourse. It is, afterall, still a free internet.
so bizarre how your syntax completely changed from your first post. (*_*)
