I&rsquo;m for it, as well as millions of Americans and 59% of physicians in a forthcoming poll this April,&rdquo; Nader said on &ldquo;Meet the Press&rdquo; with host Tim Russert.<\/p>\n<p>Obama and Clinton have promised healthcare to the nation&rsquo;s uninsured, but neither have spoken out in support of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/news_in_brief\/lt_hr_676_071215.shtml\">United States National Health Insurance Act (H.R. 676)<\/a>, first introduced in 2005 by Rep. John Conyers, Jr. (D-MI).<\/p>\n<p>According to the bill&rsquo;s summary, H.R. 676 would &ldquo;create a publicly financed, private delivered health care system that improves and expands on the existing Medicare program to all U.S. residents.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Nader has long been a scapegoat for the outcome of the 2000 election when he ran on the Green Party ticket. But he refuses to take the blame.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;So why do they blame the Greens? Why do they blame the people all over the country who are trying to have a progressive platform, not just the environment,&rdquo; Nader said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Clinton not happy with Nader&rsquo;s candidacy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Wow, that&rsquo;s really unfortunate.

She spent a considerable amount of her childhood around City employees, all of whom taught her the value of pretending to be productive. After graduating from Saint Ignatius College Preparatory, she transferred schools three times but eventually received a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Nebraska - Lincoln in Psychology, with a double minor in Political Science and Textiles, Clothing and Design. This unique area of expertise makes her qualified to critique the sartorial missteps and psychological problems of local politicians. Elaine's work has also appeared in 7x7, California Home + Design, Filipinas, the Daily Nebraskan, SF Bay Guardian, and Spin.com.","sameAs":["http:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/profiles\/profile_elaine_santore.shtml"],"url":"https:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/wordpress\/author\/esantore\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=51"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=51"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=51"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
