The health care reforms that President Barack Obama signed into law in March 2010 were seventy-five years in the making. Since Franklin D. Roosevelt, U.S. presidents have struggled to enact national health care reform; most failed. This article explores the highly charged political landscape in which Obama maneuvered and the skills he brought to bear. It contrasts his accomplishments with the experiences of his Oval Office predecessors. Going forward, implementation poses formidable challenges for Democrats, Republicans, and the political process itself.
奥巴马总统于 2010 年 3 月签署成为法律的医疗改革历经了 75 年的时间。自富兰克林·德拉诺·罗斯福总统以来，美国历任总统都在努力推行国家医疗改革；大多数都失败了。本文探讨了奥巴马在其中周旋的高度紧张的政治环境以及他所具备的技能。并将他的成就与他的前任总统在椭圆形办公室的经历进行了对比。展望未来，实施对民主党、共和党和政治进程本身都构成了巨大的挑战。
