Obama seeks public guidance on health care

President-elect Barack Obama's transition team will look for ideas in public health forums around the country.

Former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle, Obama's choice for secretary of health and human services, will lead Obama's effort to reform the public health system.

Some 8500 meetings have been held since Dec. 15, and the Obama team will post information gleaned from these events on the transition website, change.gov.

I think public health is priority input!
Here in Brazil does not have medicine for all and the old people die in the line!
The government speech that the is making improvements for something but nothing change.
I hope wen I be old I have money to pay for my health plan !
If we not have we will stay in the line waiting for a favor!
- Itis very sad and humiliating ...
We never know tomorrow!
I lost my father like that and he was a great artist!
-The world's laps.
Happy New Years '09
