Talking Back Is Okay

Obama is using technology to find out what is important to people. What a cool idea. Change.gov now has a place to go and ask leading questions. If you log in, you can vote on the questions or ask a few yourself. Here are some of the top questions.

"What will you do as President to restore the Constitutional protections that have been subverted by the Bush Administration and how will you ensure that our system of checks and balances is renewed?"

"Will you appoint a Special Prosecutor - ideally Patrick Fitzgerald - to independently investigate the gravest crimes of the Bush Administration, including torture and warrantless wiretapping?"

"What do you plan to do to our food industry to make it more sustainable? Will there be changes to our farming policies?"

"Solar energy is in use throughout the world on an individual household basis for water and facility heating, as well as electricity generation. Will your admin. attempt to utilize the millions of acres available for solar energy collection?"

Okay, you know what to do. Go vote. Go ask. And remember, it's more than all right to talk back.
