Target: Presidential Candidates

Currently many health insurance companies operate in a wild wild west of little or no rules or regulation - unfettered to cherry pick the healthiest and to deny coverage to those who need it the most.
How do insurance companies do this? They look for "pre-existing conditions" - then they can legally deny someone coverage because they have an imperfect bill of health. Insurers might also charge these individuals much higher premiums for their coverage.
Health insurance shouldn't be reserved only for the healthiest among us.
Make sure John McCain and Barack Obama get this message, and tell them they must include everyone in their plans for quality, affordable health care!
