    Again, not true. I’ve already provided sources that show exactly how policy can gain or lose voters.

      Those are opinion pieces and they’re wrong. The difference in support of the ACA vs Obamacare should be all the info you need.

        No, they aren’t “opinion pieces” just because you don’t agree with them; they are all backed by a significant amount of data.

        The difference in support between the ACA and Obamacare is the difference rhetoric and messaging can make. And even then it still remains popular because of how the policy positivity benefits people’s material conditions.

        The conversation that envelops the ACA has moved out of Washington and into the public domain. Opponents of the ACA, who call it “Obamacare,” regularly only emphasize what they perceive as negative aspects of the bill: that doctors will become overwhelmed by an influx of patients, that people will lose control over who their health care providers are and health insurance carrier is. The ACA’s supporters, who remember to call it the Affordable Care Act, tout what they see as highlights: that people will no longer be denied coverage based on preexisting conditions and that children can remain on their parents health insurance until age 26.

        Messaging matters. Policy matters.

          All you’ve done is shown that messaging matters.

            Wow, great analysis. Dispute the substance of the sources or quit trolling.
