Are Americans Ready for Medicare For All?

As the 2020 campaign season kicks off many of the declared and likely Democratic candidates seem to be throwing their support behind "Medicare for all."

But what does "Medicare for all" actually mean? And is it achievable? 

Sarah Kliff, a health policy journalist for Vox, defines the term. 

Julian E. Zelizer, a professor of history and public affairs at Princeton, gives us a historical look at how healthcare reform has worked in the U.S in the past.

Neera Tanden, the president of the Center for American Progress, explains what she views as the best path forward, while Avik Roy, the president of The Foundation for Research on Equal Opportunity, offers a different opinion. 

And Mollyann Brodie, the executive director of public opinion and survey research at the Kaiser Family Foundation, explains how Americans feel about "Medicare for all" based on polling data. 

Plus, we remember former Representative John Dingell from Michigan, the longest serving member of Congress and champion of health care reform.
