While much of the nation's attention has been on expanding medical benefits to millions of Americans under health care reform, President Obama has also taken steps to ensure his medical care delivery is conducted in an "ethically responsible manner."

Dr. Daniel Sulmasy, a member of the President's Commission, tells host Bruce Japsen about this panel's role and some of the bioethical challenges the administration may face.
