ON THE AGENDA

Team Obama, Technology & Public Engagement

David White
Dec 22, 2008

Although Barack Obama's community organizing past was the object of derision at the Republican convention, it's easy to make the argument that it was this very experience that enabled him to build such an effective political machine, especially online. I think giving his supporters such an unprecedented ability to make themselves heard led to a lot of the enthusiasm for Obama. And now that he's the President-elect, the Obama team is in the process of transitioning that online strength into an effective component of his governing operation.

Talk It Over

Homework For The New Administration And The 111th Congress

Entering a new era in Washington is a good time for many things, including a good hard look at what needs to be done to improve our education system, from pre-kindergarten all the way up through college. With that in mind, we've put together an education reform "to do" list for the president-elect and members of the 111th Congress. We invite you to check out the list and then log on to our site to discuss the education issues you feel should be priorities in 2009.
