On Thursday, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. in Washington, D.C., the White House is hosting the bipartisan health care summit with Congressional leaders from both parties. It is going to be six hours of wonkery, posturing, negotiating, speechifying, and reforming . . . all in the name of making America a better place for you and me (maybe). The summit will be streamed on WhiteHouse.gov – and with chat potential at http://apps.facebook.com/whitehouselive/ – and broadcast on C-SPAN 3. Both parties will stream the event live on their websites and expect a lot of cable news coverage, too.
Ezra Klein of the Washington Post, who has been following health care reform as closely as anyone (and who is young and very smart, by the way) – just posted his “viewer’s guide” to the summit here.
Or you can just watch this highly thoughtful preview to get you fired up:
Tell us: what do you want to see come out of this summit?
