I disagree.
I am 100% for Trump, have been since before he even announced his candidacy.
But Obamacare has no competition from our side. What we had before Obamacare was an expensive mess.
Trump is saying repeal AND REPLACE Obamacare.
But we need to replace it with something equally as good for Americans.
What we had before was an expensive, exclusive mess, which left millions of Americans without coverage.
Not good at all.
Do you mean the Affordable Care Act? Maybe was a mistake to tag it with a name that the media insists has high favorables.
They are:
1) Borders. The People's laws, made by our representatives, are not being enforced. No borders, no nation.
2) War.
3) Jobs in the harvesting of raw materials and their manufacture into valuable products.
What ties these 3 together is Globalism vs. Nationalism. How we pay for medical and nursing services is a triviality (although the damage Obama and his minions have deliberately caused is non-trivial). A national government which represented the People and was not composed of traitors and enemies could and would produce a functioning and viable medical care system in 60 days.
Clinton's absolute "Progressive" insistence on promoting the "destroying" of human life in the womb must be challenged.
Mother Teresa, who, at the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington, DC on February 3, 1994, as cited above, stated: "And if we accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another?"
The sole reason these rights are "unalienable" is that both are derived from the Creator--not from the mother or father, and not from government by legislative, executive, or judicial decision.
"The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time: the hand of force may destroy, but cannot disjoin them (life and liberty)," said Thomas Jefferson.
"The world is different now. . . and yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forefathers fought are still at issue around the globe--the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state but from the hand of God." - John F. Kennedy, Inaugural Address
That understanding underlies every other consideration embodied in our Declaration of Independence and every protection of our Constitution. It is the very basis of our rights to life and liberty, of laws to protect them, and it distinguishes ours from other forms of government.
When we fail to acknowledge that foundation of our liberty, then we risk liberty itself for future generations, for where does the right to choose who lives and who does not really end?
That is why the question is of vital importance in each election. Already, we have deprived millions of their Creator-endowed rights to life and liberty, and our nation must be weaker for their loss. We need leaders who understand the implications and potential consequences of departing from our founding principles.
In recent decades, technological advances have enabled us to observe the characteristics and actions of God's tiniest creations in the womb. Unlike previous generations who could not see, we have no excuse for imagining that these are mere blobs of tissue labeled "fetuses." In their early weeks, we now can see that they are living babies who will continue on to possess life and liberty if we do not "destroy" both. Indeed, they are simply smaller versions of ourselves.
Questions on the economy, taxes, threats from terrorists, health care--all are considerations at this election time. One, however, may be basic to all others. Who will best protect the underlying premise of our Constitution--and the lives and liberties of millions yet unborn?
Promises are illusive and cheap. One fact is indisputable, however: Hillary Clinton is committed to the Progressive agenda on this matter, and that agenda is not compatible with our Constitution's premise.
amen
You are of course completely correct. What we had “before” was a Crony capitalist system dominated by insurance companies, pharmaceutical companies, medical conglomerates, lobbyists, lawyers, and etc... All of these parties were more than happy to grab for the increased dollars from the federal government and mandated increases in what consumers have been forced to pay.
What Obamacare needs to be replaced with is a medical system with complete transparency and a return to capitalistic principals so that consumers can once again make informed decisions about their healthcare choices. And this uninformed over-reliance on insurance companies needs to be ditched. Insurance companies have one legitimate purpose and that is to protect financial assets. Having health insurance has no statistical connection with anyone’s health. People with few assets who choose not to carry health insurance have been shown in study after study to be healthier on average than those who purchase health insurance.
The people who should be making health care decisions are the people themselves and their doctors not insurance company executives, government bureaucrats, pharmaceutical company executives, lobbyists and lawyers. As you say they have had their day and managed to make a giant mess of the system.
IMO, you have correctly identified our strategic goal.
I would argue, however, that in addition to electing a qualified leader who can develop a workable plan to reach that goal, we have an immediate need to exercise every opportunity to properly shape the USSC or at least not let its current shape drift closer to globalism.
The Supreme Court far outweighs Obamacare as a critical issue.

I agree 100%, actually that is the one and only reason I’m voting for Trump and that is it. Outside of that I detest him.
I am 100% Pro-life. Ask a liberal this, “when does this baby have rights, the 1st or 2nd time it was born?”

Selfishly, I can see Obamacare sitting as #1.
But for the future of the Nation I love and the future of my grandchildren that I selfishly love even more, the #1 reason to vote President Trump is the Supreme Court of the United States.
#1 SCOTUS
Immigration is the only single issue that matters at this time. Without an end to immigration, legal and illegal, no progress will ever be made on any of the other important issues: abortion, 1st and 2nd amendment issues, supreme court, taxes, foreign policy, etc.
Fortunately, if any ONE of those is your single issue, you will vote for the same person as someone who has the correct view on any of the others.
TRUMP!
Maybe this what the author is hinting at?
Besides I wouldn't vote for Hillary Rotten Clinton anyway, neither would I vote for a third party candidate.
I agree that the Courts should be the primary reason. The others can be swapped around without upsetting anyone.
I like the list as any one of them are signicant grounds to vote Trump/Pence on any one of the items.

***** Obamacare isn’t in the top ten. *****
Maybe not for you, but it’s in the top 2 for my family.
