The content of Obama’s speech focused on the controversial passage of the Affordable Care Act, dubbed “Obamacare.”
“So when President Biden said he was not only going to celebrate the ACA but also announce actions that would make it even better, I had to introduce myself,” Obama said.
“Members of Congress voted bravely, including some who knew their vote would likely cost them their seat,” Obama boasted. “And the night we had the ACA – I’ve said this before – that was a highlight of my time here, because it reminded me and reminded us of what is possible.”
Obama has also encouraged the current Democratic White House, which has been marred by defeats: since Biden took office, he has failed to pass the “Build Back Better” program, the cancellation of student loans, the destruction of the integrity of elections and the packaging of the Supreme Court. .
“Everyone gets frustrated at times with what’s going on in this city. Progress seems far too slow,” Obama said in an apparent attempt to calm the angst. “But what [ACA] shows that if you are driven by the central idea that together we can improve…if you stick with it and are willing to overcome obstacles and criticism and continually improve where you fail, you can make the America better.
