"I'm the national anti-ObamaCare Senate candidate
They've called me 'the national anti-ObamaCare Senate candidate.' I want to roll back ObamaCare, and to explain to the American people what a constructive conservative vision really looks like.
As President George W. Bush's Assistant Secretary of Health, during my time at HHS, I learned A LOT about health care. I've spent the better part of the last ten years in the health care sector, and I have intensely studied ObamaCare. The fact is, I'm one of the few people it seems who has actually read the 2,300 pages of ObamaCare, and let me just tell you--it's worse than you think. I understand the bill, I can explain the bill, and I know how to rip it apart.

The problem with ObamaCare goes way beyond technological glitches. The problem with ObamaCare is that it fundamentally changes the relationship between the Government and our citizens. [We should] repeal ObamaCare and get America back on track."
