Barack Obama would name a "Chief Technology Officer"
Barack Obama is expected to anounce a technology policy for his campaign, which includes appointing a "Chief Technology Officer" if he is elected president of the USA. From the artcle: "The CTO’s mandate would be quite different from the Cybersecurity czar appointed under the Bush Administration. Bush’s czar helped defend against cyberattacks. Obama’s CTO, by contrast, would ensure government officials holds open meetings, broadcast live webcasts of those meetings, and use blogging software, wikis and open comments to communicate policies with Americans, according to the plan."

Another tidbit from the article:
“He wants Cabinet officials, government executives and rulemaking agencies to hold meeting that are open to the public and transmitted with a live feed. The CTO ’s mandate will be to ensure this happens. Specifically, Obama wants the public to be able to comment on the White House website for five days before legislation is signed.”
Please please please… could it just for once possibly be that we’ll have a president who “gets it?”
I sure hope he wins…. im Canadian but follow the elections in the US. I see something in Obama that i have never seen before. All the rest are the same, although the politics differ somewhat, but Obama’s mindstate allows him to see much more. And i know hilary just dont get it and never will.
