Dean: ObamaCare Created by ‘Elitists’ Who Don’t ‘Understand the American People’

Howard Dean: Obamacare Created by ‘Elitists Who Don’t Fundamentally Understand the American People’ (Washington Free Beacon)

Former DNC Chairman Howard Dean gave an excoriating critique of his own party’s key piece of legislation, Obamacare, saying it was “put together by a bunch of elitists” who “don’t fundamentally understand the American people.”

Speaking to MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski on Wednesday, Dean was shocked that Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber said “the stupidity of the American voter” was a “political advantage” in passing Obamacare.

“The problem is not that he said it. The problem is that he thinks it,” Dean said. “The core problem under the damn law is it was put together by a bunch of elitists two don’t fundamentally understand the American people. That’s what the problem is.”
