Survey: If "Chief Tech Officer" for the President's Cabinet

by shawnlin - 10/20/08 5:34 AM

Survey: If "Chief Tech Officer" for the President's Cabinet is to be chosen - who should it be?

A tech luminary? A pragmatic Washington insider?

Best,
Shalin

Al Gore

He voted to approve funding for the internet! (ie, invented the internet).
And he is on apple's board of directors. And is a senior advisor at Google.
A proven politician with ample experience in the tech industry.

Utter CRAP Position.

It would never be someone like Tom or Molly. It would always be some Executive Big Wig who brushes his teeth with RIAA, toothpaste and gargles with even more restrictive versionf of the DMCA and wears MPAA colored glasses.
