folks back home seem to feel the President is doing more talking than listening about health care reform. Here is what one southwest Florida senior citizen had to say.

They are fed up with * * * Government meddling in their lives and the use of tax money that permits the Clintons, Cabinet members, and the overbearing, bloated White House staff to fly around the country selling Clinton's plan. If it must be sold, it is dangerous. It's pretty clear, Mr. President. Older Americans are interested in real health care, not costly sales pitches.
