Got questions? If by now, after following the news and viewing ABC 's recent Health Care Special, you still have not got a firm grasp on the President's health care reform-- it seems you might not be alone. Wednesday, the President is taking his case to the people again, but this time-- Americans will be afforded the opportunity to chime in.
Using the great technological advances of the day, the President will air a Youtube special on health care whereby viewers can potentially have their questions answered by Obama himself.
"President Obama is taking your questions this Wednesday in a special online health care town hall event. With health care at the top of the President's agenda, he is opening up the White House to questions via YouTube.
