For value, I want to share the following with Ellen families so that the Health Care Reform Bill passed by the US Congress can mean added value;

 

1. Make sure your children brush their teeth before going to bed and when they wake up in the morning.

2. Establish the 1-hour TV rule by limiting their TV watching to 1-hour a day and incorporate physical activity 1-hour each day minimum.

3. Cook for them and maintain a balanced diet for them instead of fast food. Bear on more vegetables and lots of fluids to prevent dehydration from vomiting and indoor heating.

4. Cut down on your own eating out and make cooking fun once again for the entire family. Encourage your spouse into a family exercise party at least once a week AT HOME.

5. Encourage health education and medical majors among your children.

6. Seek out community health centers and support them with extra-curricular activities for the community like blood drives and health picnics.

7. Encourage adoption in lieu of women's and orphans' homes where possible. For the muslim, I encourage taking in widowers as second and third wives and adopt their children if any from previous marriages. Choose your widow wives wisely.

That's it for now. It is not 10 Mams. Only 7 for now.

 

Haruna --

For the first time in our nation's history, Congress has passed comprehensive health care reform. America waited a hundred years and fought for decades to reach this moment. Tonight, thanks to you, we are finally here.

Consider the staggering scope of what you have just accomplished:

Because of you, every American will finally be guaranteed high quality, affordable health care coverage.

Every American will be covered under the toughest patient protections in history. Arbitrary premium hikes, insurance cancellations, and discrimination against pre-existing conditions will now be gone forever.

And we'll finally start reducing the cost of care -- creating millions of jobs, preventing families and businesses from plunging into bankruptcy, and removing over a trillion dollars of debt from the backs of our children.

But the victory that matters most tonight goes beyond the laws and far past the numbers.

It is the peace of mind enjoyed by every American, no longer one injury or illness away from catastrophe.

It is the workers and entrepreneurs who are now freed to pursue their slice of the American dream without fear of losing coverage or facing a crippling bill.

And it is the immeasurable joy of families in every part of this great nation, living happier, healthier lives together because they can finally receive the vital care they need.

This is what change looks like.

My gratitude tonight is profound. I am thankful for those in past generations whose heroic efforts brought this great goal within reach for our times. I am thankful for the members of Congress whose months of effort and brave votes made it possible to take this final step. But most of all, I am thankful for you.

This day is not the end of this journey. Much hard work remains, and we have a solemn responsibility to do it right. But we can face that work together with the confidence of those who have moved mountains.

Our journey began three years ago, driven by a shared belief that fundamental change is indeed still possible. We have worked hard together every day since to deliver on that belief.

We have shared moments of tremendous hope, and we've faced setbacks and doubt. We have all been forced to ask if our politics had simply become too polarized and too short-sighted to meet the pressing challenges of our time. This struggle became a test of whether the American people could still rally together when the cause was right -- and actually create the change we believe in.

Tonight, thanks to your mighty efforts, the answer is indisputable: Yes we can.

Thank you,

President Barack Obama
