a. President Johnson allowed conservatives to propose a program, knowing it would ensure passage by Congress.

b. President Johnson resisted some Democratic urging to propose a European-style government paid system.
>Democrats will never wish for a european style system.

> Could be possible because LBJ was a Democrat.

Obama and the Democrats attempt to turn the American health care system into a European-style system.

So they are democrats who want to do it the European style. Aha.

Some Democrats favor a single-payer system similar to those in Canada and Europe. However, others don't.
