    "Senator Clinton has a different approach, she thinks we have to force people who don't have health insurance to buy it, otherwise there will be a lot of people who don't get it, I don't see those folks and I think there it is important for us to recognize that if you are going to mandate the purchase of insurance and it is not affordable then there is going to have to be some enforcement mechanism that the government uses and they may charge people who already don't have health care fines or have to take it out of their paychecks and that I don't think is helping those without health insurance, and that is a genuine difference."

    "If a mandate was the solution, we could try that to solve homelessness by mandating everybody to buy a house. The reason they don't have a house is they don't have the money, and so our focus has been on reducing costs, making it available, I am confident that if people have a chance to buy high quality health care that is affordable they will do so, and that is what our plan does and nobody disputes that"
