Obama 50% - Romney 47%
That's the Pew poll on November 4, 2012
The analysis in this report is based on telephone interviews conducted October 31-November 3, 2012, among a national sample of 3,815 adults.

Tell us more Mr. Math
Do you understand anything about Sampling Theory? Obviously the answer is no ....
Just because you can fit an end result to a poll does not justify the sample size. Go gt a GED then start junior college.
Better yet, go to one of the bathhouses in SF.
Won't work, it will sink the red states insurance pools
And WHY would you cite data 6 years old? Further, I want health care that does not penalize healthy people. I don't care about your Red and Blue crap. People that CHOOSE to jeopardize their own health should pay a surcharge. Comprehendo?
Did you used to run?
I've been running 38 years now. Other than Oct. 2012 when I had to lay off for 4 months due to meniscus strain (my own diagnosis) I've not had issues.
What about biking? You can get a good aerobic workout that way.
Maybe we could come up with something truly fair and applicable to EVERYONE. Once insurance companies know they have to take everyone then there's no reason IMO that they couldn't offer a multitude of plans, as was the case in the past. Did you ever use ehealthinsurance.com? The number of plans in the past was almost overwhelming from $250 annual deductibles to $5K for a single person (and double those amounts for couples). Just as corporations and smaller companies offer incentives for employees to shape up and become more fit I suspect there's a way to incorporate something into a national plan. Numbers don't lie .. so at the end of the year if a doctor submits data to show a patient has lost weight and become more fit then said patient gets a lower premium in the upcoming year and some return of premium for the year just completed. There's a million ways one could improve what is out there now.
But people CHOOSE to eat what they do. And I'm not suggesting this is a high poverty problem. Recently I was in Pinehurst, NC and after a funeral for a friend's Mom their family wanted to go to a restaurant. No one lived locally so we ended up at an Outback Steakhouse. Holy crap!! You'd have thought it was a Shoney's all you can eat place. Fat and obese people shoving those 'onion loaves' in their mouths. And these certainly appeared to be middle class people. And no matter where you go .. the mall, airport, restaurants, ..... the size of people anymore is scary. I don't know how some people can look at themselves in the mirror. I feel sorry for a lot of them ... but they choose to be that way (there may be an occasional person who has some defect that causes weight issues but most are due to diet and (lack of) exercise). And fitness centers are out there .. they advertise. Places like Groupon constantly have 'specials' that are fitness oriented. Plenty of dieticians and weight counselors. Most people have no excuse IMO.
God you're stupid max. Zero imagination or wit and you're a liar to boot.
A few years ago I was working in Kannapolis NC. It was gross to go out and eat and watch the huge people gorge themselves. I went to a buffet often that was close because they had a good selection of vegetables and non fried meat. I remember seeing a huge man sitting across from me with enough food in front of him to feed at least four people and this was before he went for desserts. I was thinking if he keels over with a heart attack I'm not giving mouth to mouth. I had to stop eating there just because of the gross people and their eating habits.
the LA Times is a steaming pile of s%^t
Nice rebuttal.
By the way, LATimes is simply reporting a SURVEY from a non-partisan group.

The excuse is that the common wisdom on "what makes us fat" has taken a wrong turn for about 40 years. Fat people continue to gorge because, thanks to insulin and fuel partitioning, their tissues (besides adipose) are starving. Once this process begins it is very difficult (see also: diets, success rates) to reverse. But if one is willing to choose to cut carbs and add more protein but especially more fat to their diet, they can begin reducing insulin induced gorging. But that costs more, and it's less convenient--you gotta spend more time in the kitchen.
Your exercise to lose weight assertion is a non-starter. It simply increases your appetite, besides, it doesn't burn nearly enough calories anyway, especially as you become adapted to it. Food composition is king.
