The president will discuss work continuing "around the clock" to improve the website, which has been plagued by problems since its launch earlier this month. According to the White House official, the president and his team find those troubles "unacceptable."
 The official said the president will be joined by "consumers, small business owners, and pharmacists," including individuals who have already enrolled in ObamaCare online.
In a blog post on Sunday, HHS said it had called in "some of the best and brightest" to help iron out the technical glitches.
“We have updated the site several times with new code that includes bug fixes that have greatly improved the HealthCare.gov experience,” the agency said. “Today, more and more individuals are successfully creating accounts, logging in, and moving on to apply for coverage and shop for plans. We're proud of these quick improvements, but we know there's still more work to be done.”
The White House said the president will also stress that the Affordable Care Act is "much more than just a website" in the event.
the cynic in me can't help but wonder this group who was doing the set up were fired by Canada they are Canadian the gov't never having taken this large of a project depends on those "professionals" who allegedly know what they are doing, we all have had tech problems i just got Comcast x-1 box on the 29th of Sept. it worked 2 days from then till the 11th when it was fixed it happens.
we have waited this long a little longer won't hurt never will that is what is in store if the republicans have their way.  i do believe that the big business has something to do with this their train wreck rhetoric could be a give away how would they know months ahead unless they had some inside info, it could be not like it doesn't fall under their game plan.
Despite the technical issues that have plagued the opening weeks of the new exchanges, the White House has been eager to highlight the intense interest in the marketplaces.
According to the White House, there have been more than 19 million unique visits to the website since its launch this month. And an administration official said Saturday that nearly a half million Americans have begun shopping for insurance on the site, although the White House did not announce how many of this individuals had successfully purchased coverage.
we are allowing ourselves to be influenced by right wing propaganda they have been beating this since it was first mentioned, like the entire Presidency they have demeaned and lied knowing they had clandestine efforts at work to destroy it all they goofed this time they either had extraordinary luck or a crooked hand in the mix.
