Obama Campaign Does Debate Cleanup On Social Security Answer

I agree with you about evaluating legislation (on its own merits).

With ACA, it's lousy legislation in so far as providing affordable quality medical treatment for everyone, written by the insurance industry's Liz Fowler and Steve Larsen.  

Also FWIW, FDR was a corporate lawyer for about a minute and a half (less than 2 years) - Then he went into public service.  As lawyers, FDR, Lincoln and Darrow were "for hire".   In public service, the hat one wears is different than the hat one wears as a corporate lawyer and some do it better than others.
