He also charged his then doctrinal chief, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger - now known as Pope Benedict XVI - to investigate the implications for the church of having...
Finally, both parties must make a more conscious effort to explain the details and potential impact of their legislative work. No American can be expected to peruse the 2,000-page document to formulate an opinion on the bill. This bill will dramatically affect all Americans and therefore must be made accessible and comprehensible to the public. Elected leaders must take it upon themselves to ensure that their constituents are knowledgeable about the significance of reform, in an accurate, unbiased manner...
