Obama is defining the legacy - no family will ever face financial ruin because of illness, period. Everyone gets coverage when they need it.
That's certainly a goal and it's clear the Obama folk want to keep working toward it, but ACA doesn't provide it. There's some slippage between the poor, the near poor, and the lower middle class in which medicaid disappears but there is not enough money to afford healthcare insurance. That, unfortunately, remains. Perhaps that is one of the matters the Obama folk will work on.

Obama's speech today was just terrific. I thought it was exactly the right bit of content and tone.
