Captured on July 21st, 2009, from a live stream of Howard Dean at the University of California Washington Center in Washington DC for a discussion centered on the latest health care debate (sponsored by PBC and CampusProgress).

Dean, a six term Governor, physician, chairman of the PBC board, and author of the newly released book Howard Deans Prescription for Real Healthcare Reform, will be there to help separate what is real and factual in the health care debate from what is simply rhetoric. As Dean writes in his book, now is the time to “take back the health care reins.”

Howard Dean’s Prescription for Real Healthcare Reform is available now at the Progressive Book Club.

Howard Dean, whose new book, Howard Dean’s Prescription for REAL Healthcare Reform, is due out in July (and available right now for FREE on pre-order when you join Progressive Book Club). The chat, a joint effort of Democracy for America,  took place on Tuesday, June 9, at 9 PM ET and ran a little over one hour. Thousands of people took part, submitting hundreds of questions about healthcare reform, of which the governor answered as many as time would allow.
