The plan would include mental health care as well as dental and vision coverage for all Americans.

Strictly speaking, this does not necessarily mean mandatory mental evaluations. It could just mean that mental health is covered, while physical health visits are mandated. Is there anything more specific about Edwards' mandated doctor visits? Has the proposal been written up yet, or is it in the campaign one-liner stage?

Strictly speaking, you’re reading of Edward’s position is wrong.

While YOU made a separation between physical health checks (evaluations) and mental health visits, Mr. Edwards made no such separation.

To Mr. Edwards, it’s all one great big program, an observation which hardly needs further elaboration.

If it's covered, it's going to be mandatory.

There's nothing more precious to the liberal than control of the mind. Controlling the body is one thing, but they want our minds.

Can you imagine the level of control they can exert by making up mental illness to be diagnosed that no one can dispute with tests to show otherwise?

They're already making hate a crime and punishing it. What about someone who doesn't agree with liberal politics? They'll need mental treatment for sure.

If that doesn't send a chill down your spine, I don't know what would.
