28. Should NASA should be 'Administered' by an Astronaut?
I liked Thom Hartmann's take on this. To me, a positive characteristic of Senator Obama is the fact that he is not a 'Washington Insider.' I am sick of politics as usual, I hope that a President Obama will represent the needs of We The People more-so than the needs of the corporatists. I welcome the Leon Panetta selection because he may represent the needs of We The People/the US Constitution over the needs of any corruption within the C.I.A. An insider selection by Obama otoh, may instead have chosen to sweep such stuff under a rug-especially if that insider were in any way complicit.

("Should NASA should be 'Administered' by an Astronaut?" Was a topic related example called in to the Thom Hartmann show by one of his callers-credit where credit is due!)
