Obama has come back to the table with a new health care plan. This new plan is important to the Obama administration because if he is not able to pass this new plan, it will reflect on his ability to lead. The new plan address the issue of affordability, and pre-existing conditions; and also giving federal Health and Human Services Department control over premiums. The president has actually put forward proposal for the bill himself. He will have bipartisan talks on Thursday at the White House on the issue.
If Obama’s administration is not able to get a bill passed, how do you believe history will view him?

Failure to pass health care reform will not reflect too negatively on Obama's presidency given that Bill Clinton failed as well and is regarded as having a very successful term in office. There are many other issues Obama could make his name with.
