President Barack Obama warned Americans not to be tricked by "scare tactics" he accused his opponents of using as he went on the road to rally support for his drive to overhaul the US healthcare system.
Taking his healthcare pitch to a campaign-style rally in Minnesota three days after addressing a joint session of Congress, Obama hoped to keep up the pressure on wary fellow Democrats as well as Republicans to move forward on his top domestic priority.
"The time for games has passed. Now is the time for action. Now is the time to deliver on healthcare," Obama told a cheering crowd of more than 10,000 people at the Target Center sports arena in Minneapolis.
While Obama pressed his case on friendly political turf, tens of thousands of conservative opponents marched in the US capital against his healthcare initiative and spending plans, arguing they amounted to a government takeover which would drive the country toward socialism.
