FRONTLINE: Obama's Deal - PART1

FRONTLINE: OBAMA'S DEAL takes viewers behind the headlines to reveal the political maneuvering behind Barack Obama's effort to remake the American health system and transform the way Washington works. Through interviews with administration officials, senators and Washington lobbyists, Obama's Deal reveals the dramatic details of how an idealistic president pursued the health care fight -- despite the warnings of many of his closest advisers -- and how he ended up making deals with many of the powerful special interests he had campaigned against.

@winningtrolls I disagree. The Republicans will self destruct as they have already in this debates.

@ruttisss The other side hated President Obama so much and they still do. The bill has actually helped millions of people. I have no sympathy for the Republican party anymore.
