The president is urging the true believers to stand by him amid all the “noise and misinformation” out there. For example, people seem to have misunderstood all those times when he clearly misspoke about keeping your current health care plan, period.
In remarks tonight, POTUS says he wants to review accomplishments of the ACA, not the "controversies" that make the news

In a fun twist from 2012, Obama is criticizing the press coverage of Obamacare. Suggesting good stories of ACA aren't being covered

Pres Obama laments that in implementing ObamaCare he's up against "so much noise and misinformation."

Even the people who made up his campaign in 2012 apparently missed the bit about not really being able to keep your plan if you like your plan, so he cleared that up for them too, borrowing some language from Sen. Dianne Feinstein.
Pres Obama explains his if-you-like-your-plan-you-can-keep-it vow, saying you could keep it "if it hadn’t changed since the law passed."

@markknoller Wow, that's a big drift from: "If you like your plan, you can keep it. Period."

.@markknoller talk about revisionism! He's walking back the previous talking point because people are realizing what a liar he is.

@markknoller He's so used to getting away with lying to the press that he can't stop himself.

@markknoller So it wasn't a lie, it was a "promise"… except without telling us what he was promising us. #StillALie

Get ready, America: even though Obamacare was passed, signed into law and upheld by the Supreme Court, he still has one more campaign in him to make sure the Affordable Care Act works.
After weeks of being battered, Obama & his @OFA allies seeking to reframe Obamacare, launch their organizing campaign to get people enrolled

Pres Obama says he's got one more campaign to run: to make ObamaCare works "for everyone in America."

Pres Obama urges health care supporters to spread stories of ObamaCare benefits "far & wide," to oppose fear, misinformation and cynicism.

@markknoller Oh we'll be spreading stories. But @BarackObama won't like them. He lied, ACA is a disaster. Repubs and Dems are mad.
