Obama: Obamacare solved healthcare problem as old as Cubs' curse

President Obama defended the Affordable Care Act on Saturday in what is the final White House address before voters hit the polls next Tuesday. Obama touted the progress his administration has made providing Americans with healthcare plans despite last week’s news of rising premiums and other costs.

“Americans have been fighting for the idea that healthcare is a right and not a privilege since the second-to-last time the Cubs won the World Series. I’m not talking about the 2016 Cubs – I’m talking about the 1908 Cubs. That’s a really long time,” Obama said.
