James C. Capretta: Jeb Bush Offers a Smart, Conservative Obamacare Alternative

Obamacare was enacted more than five years ago, and is now in its second year of nearly full implementation, but, in political terms, it is still not a settled matter. Republicans remain nearly unanimous in their opposition to the law, which continues to inspire widespread unease among the larger electorate.
