What do you think the Obama administration's priorities for transparent government should be?

Transparent what type of government would that be a government that was visible at all time visible? No! A government free from pretense or deceit .a government that is acessible, visiblity of information, concern, easily detected and seen through. These are foundation words that a transparent government would have to build on. Can Government be free from pretense and deceit? A transparent without pretense or deceit would have to be one that would let the policy of the past administration go and let there judgment not be clouded by pretense or deceit, to judge the action of the Bush administration already clouds the window of transparency.

Can Government be more accessible; when we speak of accessibility and government one easier to reach or one better equipped to serve? Would a reachable or a more efficient government better serve its citizens? Reach should the Obama cabinet spend more time discussing issues to best help the president establish policy meeting so call expert or should the one that help developed policy spend more time at Town meetings telling the President what the everyday voter thinks lets keep guys like Joe the plumber involved and our Nation. Accessibility why should a veteran talk to at least three clerks before he sees a medical professional when he goes to the Va. Hospital, Why does a person going to the Social Security office have too see two to three person before the actual interview process beginning. And after seeing all these screeners they tell you it will be some time before you hear from us thirty, sixty, ninety.

A transparent Government would be more flexible, ready and reachable. And on Top of that a lot of these people will go thru and appeal process where they will be awarded benefits these screeners said they were not entitled too. A transparent Government would be a smooth accessible Government that better served it Citizens. Yes Government consist of more than President, Senators, and Congress persons, it include services, transportation, health, education, protection, and affairs a broad, along with, trade manufacturing and the list is long but this should give and idea of the big picture of government. A government that is concern and that is what we have to a great degree or we would not be discussing these issues this is what has made our republic great, and causes me to smile because the spirit of the Boston Tea Party is still alive, God bless America, the issues we face today over come able as issues our fore father face.

Abraham Lincoln set out to keep the United States united and a united United States could no longer survive off of slavery when the founding father had agreed that all man where create equal, so concern in transparent is a live and well . A government that is easily detected and seen through ask the Bush Administration can our government be detected and seen through by it citizens, or ask the Republican Party, Mr. Obama you are president because this country does watch it's government and seeks out the truth, so April twenty-fourth you spoke to the American people and a town meeting promising to make government run more smoother, by being accessible, and efficient, no other kind of transparency would benefit America because we must protect our citizens and our borders.
