Will you provide leadership with creating a national public option for health care?

Alan: not a high priority for me because that is not what I am elected to do. Has argued for universal system, but it will not come out of King County

Dow: King County has a lot of clout, we can make a difference. King County needs to stand up to say national health care reform right now. We need comprehensive reform

Larry: you can not ignore health care costs. The system we have in America is broken. The County Executive does need to speak up to create a single payer system.

Ross: I agree we can lobby in DC for a reasnoble solution, but the real job is delivering public health across the county

Susan, goodspaceguy, and Fred did not respond to the question.
