Plans for health care, higher education, and Energy policy, were points Presidential Candidate and former New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson outlined at Franklin Pierce University in Rindge New Hampshire Yesterday afternoon. Richardson a democrat is a former secretary for U.S. energy, and former UN Ambassador. Richardson's agenda speaks of eliminating the dependence on Foreign Oil. Richardson wants to make the mile per gallon average requirement around 55 miles per gallon, versus the 35 percent it is set at now. As for his Medicare policy, if elected Richardson says he would lower the eligibility age from 65 to 55, and shift medicare funding, to direct care for screenings, and testing.
Richardson says for health care, we must as a nation promote prevention and living healthy lives, starting early with children.
If Richardson were elected president, veteran health care would not just be given at VA hospitals. Richardson told the audience in Rindge that every veteran with a Hero health card, could receive treatment anywhere.
