Video: What Inspires Teno Villarreal
Teno Villareal of San Antoni, Texas is inspired. He believes Barack will bring about a health care system that brings affordable care to all.
When Teno was young, he was stricken with cancer and lost one of his kidneys. Ever since, he's been hit hard by insurance companies due to his "pre-existing condition." It's been difficult for him to get insurance, and thankfully he receives it from the company he works for. Yet, it's a small business, and as a result, the costs for his entire company are high. He's excited that Barack will fight to lower costs and ease the burden on people like himself.
"Change has to start somewhere, and every little bit counts," he says. "Ten bucks, five bucks… you know, everything helps."
