WASHINGTON — The House of Representatives Sunday passed by a 219 to 212 vote the biggest overhaul of the nation's health care system in more than four decades, sweeping changes expected to make coverage easier and cheaper to obtain.

The largely party-line vote — 219 Democrats voted "yea" while all 178 Republicans and 34 Democrats voted no — meant President Barack Obama's biggest domestic initiative neared the end of its yearlong political and legislative odyssey.

"We proved that we are still a people capable of doing big things," Obama said late Sunday from the White House.

From wikipedia:
Emilio Aguinaldo y Famy (March 22, 1869 – February 6, 1964) was a Filipino general, politician, and independence leader. He played an instrumental role in Philippine independence during the Philippine Revolution against Spain and the Philippine-American War that resisted American occupation.

In the Philippines, Aguinaldo is considered to be the country's first and the youngest Philippine President, though his government failed to obtain any foreign recognition.
