Adding pressure to fix the administration’s problem-plagued health care program, former President Bill Clinton said President Barack Obama should find a way to let people keep their health coverage, even if it means changing the law.

Clinton said Obama should “honor the commitment that the federal government made to those people and let them keep what they got.”

Clinton becomes the latest in Obama’s party to urge the president to live up to a promise he made repeatedly, declaring that the if Americans liked their health care coverage, they would be able to keep it under the new law.
