Morning in America? Health care reform in the U.S. and Virginia after the election

In 1984, Ronald Reagan’s reelection campaign introduced the theme “Morning in America," promoting an image of the U.S. as a hopeful nation moving toward a better future. As one campaign advertisement asserted, “It’s morning again in America, and under the leadership of President Reagan, our country is prouder and stronger and better.”  Fast forward to 2016. “Hopeful” or making the country “prouder" aren't descriptors most Americans would apply to either this presidential campaign or the contenders. One day post-election, what do experts think will be the “better future” under our new President and Congress? And how might the new President’s health care agenda be felt in the Commonwealth of Virginia?
