Connection to the Constitution: 

Article 1: Section 7: "Every Bill which shall have passed the House of Representatives and the Senate, shall, before it become a Law, be presented to the President of the United States; If he approve he shall sign it, but if not he shall return it, with his Objections to that House in which it shall have originated, who shall enter the Objections at large on their Journal, and proceed to reconsider it. If after such Reconsideration two thirds of that House shall agree to pass the Bill, it shall be sent, together with the Objections, to the other House, by which it shall likewise be reconsidered, and if approved by two thirds of that House, it shall become a Law. But in all such Cases the Votes of both Houses shall be determined by Yeas and Nays, and the Names of the Persons voting for and against the Bill shall be entered on the Journal of each House respectively. If any Bill shall not be returned by the President within ten Days (Sundays excepted) after it shall have been presented to him, the Same shall be a Law, in like Manner as if he had signed it, unless the Congress by their Adjournment prevent its Return, in which Case it shall not be a Law"

Analysis to the Connection: 

The founding fathers created a system which will determine which laws will be passed.  It is between yea which supports the law and nay which opposes the law.  If the president vetoes a bill, congress can override that ruling by a two thirds majority vote.  If a bill was to be passed by the President and Congress does not approve of the bill they can adjourn it and prevent it from becoming a law.

The founding fathers divided the power to pass law between Congress and the President.  So both can oppose each other by the right of the Legislative article in the US Constitution.  Both the President and Congress can adjourn each other and not pass any laws that are proposed to each other.

 

                                                        

       In the video "Health Care Reform Clears US Congress," says there were a majority of yeas than nays giving the President of the United States Barack Obama his victory.  Many people say that there is a lot of risk that is going to take place especially on the people and the economy.  Many say it will cost too much and others say it is what american citizens need right now.  Some say it would be disasterous because it will hurt the people of the United States.  Already many Republicans are preparing to go forward and challenge the bill and the outcome of the votes.

       I disagree with the people because no one in congress adjourned the bill which prevented it from becoming a law.  The votes came out fair and by those votes they determined the outcome.  This is what Congress forgot to do in Article 1 Section 7 in order to keep the people happy.  On another part I agree that Republicans have the right to challenge the bill because in Article 1 Section 7 it says if Congress objects a bill the President passed they have the right to override it by two thirds majority vote andis in any way a violation of the constitution.
