For a better perception

  On Monday, October 21, President Obama held an event to talk about the new health care program that has taken action. In this event president Obama would address the problems going on with the website and try to let people see why this plan is a positive thing. Cathleen Decker from Los Angeles Times published an article that explains what this event held by President Obama was for. In an attempt; in my opinion to inform people of what is currently going on with this new issue.

  In her article Decker uses many polls taken by many other media sources that shows that the supporting and apposing percentages are very close together. This type of evidence is one tactic that i find to be very good because it gives people that haven not spoken out yet the courage to do so. And it allows people who are unsure about things to come to a decision. One of the statements that Decker uses is one by President Obama where the president states that this program is better that what the United States had before. Another interesting thing that I saw was the fact that Decker showed that President Obama is open to ideas. This let the audience ( the american people ) know that this program can be changed.

  But despite this I agree with what President Obama is saying. Obama states that the people against the program are not helping out to make it better and that the only interest they have is simply to take it down. I think that this no longer should be about "Politics" but this needs to be about the American people. We are talking about the health of the people. This new found issue is one that both parties need to come to an agreement. Deckers article made me see many new things that i didn't see before, but like many other things in this government it will take much more time.
