Remak Highlights:

* A long memory is the most radical idea in America.

* This is the time. There’s a window there where people are feeling so frustrated, and so poor, and so taken advantage of by corporations, that they - whatever party they are - they are willing to listen to new ideas.

* A society that cannot heal its own people, cannot heal itself.

* We have to remember the insurance companies are behind the increased costs of health care. I don’t know any doctor, or nurse, or physician’s assistant who’s getting rich in this system.

* It’s the health insurance companies that are making the money. They must be cut out of the equation. The insurance companies cannot be trusted.
