Valeria Jarrett has a unique way of connecting with people. I wish the White House would have her out more to talk about the accomplishments of the Administration.

It has been two years since President Obama signed the Affordable Care Act, and already, the new law is improving the lives of African-Americans.
Since March 2009, more than 2.4 million African-American seniors with Medicare have received free preventive services such as diabetes screenings. About 410,000 more African- American young adults who would otherwise be uninsured gained coverage due to the law. In addition, 5.5 million African-Americans with private health insurance now have coverage for preventive services without paying an extra penny at their doctor's office.
And 10.4 million African-Americans with private insurance coverage no longer face lifetime limits thanks to the new health care law - in other words, your insurance company can no longer drop your coverage at a time when you need it most.
