From the excerpt: “And that’s only possible if we “un-elect” in 2014 every politician who voted for it.”

Can’t do that, unfortunately.

First, the main congressional culprit in this mess is the Senate and all Democrat Senators who voted for the ACA are not up for reelection in 2014, and therefore cannot be “un-elected” . Only a third of the Senate is up for reelection every two years.

Secondly, the Executive can veto any repeal Bill and the Executive cannot be “un-elected” in 2014. Therefore, the Senate would have to be “veto-proof” and that’s not going to happen in one election cycle (see item one above).

“We the People” can only begin to do something in 2014 and will have to continue “doing something” for at least one additional election in 2016 and probably several after that.

The best chance was in 2012 and “We the People” blew it.

>>The long-term solution, however, can only be a complete repeal of Obamacare. And that’s only possible if we “un-elect” in 2014 every politician who voted for it. <<

EVERY rat senator voted for a bill they hadn't read.

The long term solution is to once again render senators responsible to their state legislators.
