39. The ACA, with the medicare expansion is an excellent improvement to the former system we had.

Unfortunately, there are still too many suffering from high premiums, copays and skyrocketing prescription drugs. I hope Biden has a way to address those folks and implement policy based on healthcare being a human right, and not a commodity only for those with jobs and who can afford it.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
