Art of the possible

"Politics is the art of the possible"   Otto Von Bismarck   (1815–1898)
 
As you listen to all the candidates for president recite their ideas and plans, keep in mind the words of Von Bismarck, and ask if their plans and ideas are in the realm of the possible, and especially the probable.
Universal healthcare is spoken of with glowing platitudes, but are the candidates ideas within the "art of the possible"? Or will the vested interests blow them away? Will any candidate have the guts and staying power to carry the fight to a successful conclusion?
 
Questions to ponder.
