(UNCUT) The CNN RON CLARK ACADEMY HEALTH CARE REFORM SONG – FULL VERSION
Ron Clark Academy students write a song their take on health care reform to the tune of Miley Cyrus’ ‘Party in the U.S.A.’ on CNN.
Lyrics:
Got paged in the morning at 5am
Time to go into work again.
Welcome to the world of medicine,
Whoa, here we go again.
The hospital’s packed with people in a long line
Agitated cause we’ve waited for a long time.
This is all so crazy, too many missing coverage lately
My tummy’s turning and I’m feeling kinda sickly
My hip’s bad and I feel weak
And the prices are always raising up.
Conservatives and liberals say
To reform healthcare today
But they can’t seem to find a way.
So we throw our hands up for healthcare reform
Make your choice today.
Private and public care
Will a marketplace treat us fair?
So we throw our hands up for healthcare reform
Make your choice today.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It’s a problem in the USA.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It’s a problem in the USA.
Obama says everyone needs
Health coverage in America now.
We need to insure those 47 million
But the government doesn’t know how.
Deductibles getting higher every day
I got my bill and I’m thinking NO way.
And what about my brother?
He’s hurt and can’t get covered.
My tummy’s turning and I’m feeling kinda worried
Capricious coverage is killing me.
That’s when a doctor said, “You’ll have to go.”
Bipartisan support was tried so we wouldn’t be denied
But Joe Wilson yelled, “You lie!”
So we throw our hands up for healthcare reform
Make your choice today.
Private and public care
Will a marketplace treat us fair?
So we throw our hands up for healthcare reform
Make your choice today.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It’s a problem in the USA.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It’s a problem in the USA.

In her quest for universal coverage, Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., plans to force people to pay for health insurance, whether they want to or not. A Hardball panel discusses the pros and cons of this proposal.
I was in Primerica (formerly the A.L.Williams company) selling term life insurance and mutual funds for 18 months and I got my guts cut out. I made $500 full-time in that year and a half. But I never quit. And somewhere along the way I had a revelation: my number one job in Primerica is to become just like my coach, Art Williams. If I became just like him, and did what he did, I would have what he had. I knew as a coach what he wanted most was for his people to do exactly what he says, so I wrote him a letter, telling him what I was going through, but what he was teaching me and how I understood the difference between winning and losing, and what my plans were for the future. Now Art, who is a billionaire, never met me, has a great family, great relationships, hundreds of close teammates around the world, and had just had heart surgery and was living on borrowed time, cared enough about a loser like me a thousand miles away in another country to write me a letter. Art Williams cared about me, my dreams, my goals, my hurts, and my passions. He captured my heart, and it changed my whole life. He made me feel like a stud, and he made me feel like I can win. I left Primerica because I got called to the ministry, and after a few years of learning and preparing, I am ready now to step out in faith and chase my biggest dreams in life. I still work hard every day to become like my coach, I will never forget the things I learned from him, and I will always have a place in my heart for my dear coach.
