Obama Invites Republicans and Democrats to Health Care Summit

With no alternative other than to reach out to the Republican party, President Obama has scheduled the first bi-partisan televised health care summit of the current administration this Thursday, Feb. 25, 2010.

As you can see from the video below, Obama is asking that both sides find common ground in the health care debate. It will be interesting to see what happens. One typically Republican point of reform allows for health insurance companies to provide coverage across states.  Despite previous claims that this initiative would allow insurance companies to “poach the healthiest in each state”, Obama now says it is a good idea. Are there any other examples of common ground? We will keep you posted on the results of the summit.
