The last brief, shining moment

[nellierose]

Ted Kennedy died this evening.

All of my hopes of eventual healthcare reform and a United States where everyone, no matter their income, can get free basic healthcare, has died with him.

Perhaps it was only an idealist dream.

But that's it- the last great Kennedy has gone.

Camelot is truly dead.

Truly sad news. I know very little about the US in general, but I find it baffling that they don't have a free healthcare system, and even more so that, now it's being discussed, so many people are against it. If Obama can be elected, though, I believe it's possible that free heathcare can eventually be established. Here's hoping for you xxx
