The following logic was applied prior to the word frequency count of the speech:

1. remove any reference to punctuation
2. remove months 
3. remove any references to (.,-?;:)
4. converted text to lower case
5. set format prior to word cont ()
6. ran code algorithm against text to derive word frequency (delimiter is a "space" or " ")
7. output file (word-frequency-healthcare-bill.xls)
8. scrubbed pdf online and derived something legible (final-cut3.txt)

Observations:

1. the word "methamphetamine" is present 3 times
2. the word "california" is present 34 times ... why?
   1. the word "michigan" is present 1 time
   2. the word "arizona" is present 1 time
   3. the words "new york" is present 1 time
3. the word "childcare" is present 1 time
4. the word "child" is present 164 times
5. the word "indian" is present 1151 times
6. the word "death" is present 15 times
7. the word "terrorist" is present 2 times
8. the word "plumbing" is present 1 time
9. the word "cancer" is present 16 times
10. the word "abortion" is present 16 times

And many many more...  Have fun!
