0 the cnn headquarters in atlanta. let s turn things over to john berman who is sitting in for jake tapper. the lead start right now. the white house never mentioned how many of the tur y turkeys it pardons go on to reoffend. i m john berman, and this is the lead. the national lead, a miserable storm on the busiest travel day of the year. it might have some of you asking just how much do i really want to see my alleged loved ones anyway? and could this weather ruin one of our most beloved holiday traditions and the only one with rated-pg inflatable dolls, the macy s day parade. president obama hoping americans will pardon the healthcare.gov web site the way he pardoned the turkey, but as they race a self-imposed deadline to fix the site, new word it s giving up on yet another part of the affordable care act for a whole year. when you run out of things to talk about with the relatives tomorrow, how about going to a place where you can all sit quietly and not look at each other
and he keeps apologizing, and at a certain point, in fairness to him, he can only apologize so much, but he s got to change his behavior. that s how he wins my confidence back. that s how the president will win the confidence of the american people back. i would like to see him change his behavior. i would like to hear more apologies from my kids, but that s a completely different story. rich, kiki, thank you. i have to ulpaw apologize to kid. that s a different story. appreciate it. some 50 years after the death of president kennedy, did lee harvey oswald really act alone? you re going to hear from the time article writer that he had help. plus, never before seen pictures are revealed. and they re amazing. fancy robes. seems every hotel has something to love. so join the loyalty program that lets you earn free nights in any of them. plus, for a limited time, members can win a free night every day. only at hotels.com
that really what the president proposed today is the right answer, whether he can do it administratively or not, somebody else has to figure out, or is there something struckuraly wrong with the way the aca is proposed that it really does need to go through major surgery. kiki. what s really interesting here, and this is something the president has said from the very beginning of the debates on the proposal, the mere idea of aca, is that where there needs to be work done, he s willing to work on it and willing to work with both sides. again, i go back to this concept of major change. major change does not happen without hiccups. rich and i are in agreement. the debacle of the website is just that, a debacle being fixed, being worked on. but the idea and the reform as a whole for our country is leading us on a path to ultimately a stronger economy, a healthier country, and a better place for everybody. we ve got i don t know we ve got to be willing to look for those places.
people to get whacked around in press conferences. let s get to the work because the real credibility builder will be more people covered by insurance. we know between enrollment in medicaid and even what people are calling the low numbers of enrollment in the marketplace, we already have more americans covered this week, and that s a good thing. rich, what are republicans willing to do hold it. you can t let that go. millions, kiki, of people, have been told that their insurance is going to be canceled. and the president addressed that. thousands have gotten through the system. so for you to say that more people are covered today than they were yesterday, effectively, is simply not correct. now, here s the question i think we need to answer. i agree with you on the whole website thing. that will get fixed. that s a technical thing. my big question is the website was a big, gigantic blinding light in our eyes. is there something besides that that is so structurally wrong
that will be here for you now and down the road. i have a lifetime of experience. so i know how important that is. alongside john berman in new york. just a short time ago, president obama addressed the millions of americans who are furious with his affordable care act. the president offered a plan that could allow americans to keep their individual insurance plans for one more year. insurers had canceled policies that do not meet obama care requirements. president obama admitted he is not a perfect man or president. but said he will do all that he can on behalf of americans. joining me now from washington to talk about all this is kiki maclaine and rich gaylon. kiki, i m going to start with you, put you on the hot seat because a lot of action has been happening on the democratic side of the aisle. the president acknowledges he
