Will the health care bill pass in the US Senate?
Depending on which bill you mean, the Affordable Care Act of 2009 was passed in early 2010 and reconciled with the Health Care and Education Reconcilation Act by both houses. Health Care reform is thus law of the land. All other bills, including the one containing a public option, were striked from the schedule.

Why did Barack Obama create Obamacare?
The main reason was because he believed it would help people. This is not a new issue for him-- when he was a state senator in Illinois, he worked very hard on improving health care access. It was an issue he cared about a lot, as did his wife, who was a hospital administrator at that time. In Illinois, his advocacy on health care was very popular, so perhaps he thought he would receive a similar reaction when he tried to pass health care reform as president. It should also be noted that "Obamacare" (really called the Affordable Care Act) had been in the making for a long time. Bill Clinton tried to pass something similar during his presidency, but failed. Mitt Romney enacted an almost identical law when he was governor of Massachusetts, but had to walk away from it when he ran for president because Republicans (who first thought up some of the provisions, including the Mandate) now were opposed to it. Mr. Obama decided the issue of expanding access to more people would be a good one to tackle, since it could benefit millions of Americans. He seemed genuinely surprised by how much resistance there was to a bill that at one time, Republicans supported.
What percent of Americans are against health care reform?
It is a good approximation to say that the American people are evenly divided over the health care bill. According to a recent Gallup poll 49% approve of the HCR bill vs 40% disapprove. Also according to a March 2010 poll by Kaiser 46% approve of the bill vs 40% disapproval. See related links for more info. Virtually all of America wants true reform. The issue that over 50% of America is against was the theft of 1/6th of our economy and the rationing that must occur with this bill. Unfortunately, Congress didn't care about what our society wanted and the President is equally against want we want. November is coming to help relieve this situation. I is unfortunate that nether of our current political system is interested in us. Pandering to the foolish and destroying our economy for their own gains is sad and criminal. We all agree we need reform, most of us were just against the takeover and rationing in the current bill. The Gallup poll is the most interesting as it shows just how partisan the issue is. Neither side is interested in the average American, but their own special interests. Poll results vary wildly depending on the website in most cases it is because of the margin of error. It cannot be said either way if America supports or rejects this bill. Therefore it is an accurate statement to say the country is evenly split over the topic of health insurance reform. Latest polls say nearly 60% of Americans want nothing to do with Obamacare.
