TECH LEADERS ANNOUNCE SUPPORT FOR BARACK OBAMA
CHICAGO, IL - Technology leaders across the nation today endorsed Barack Obama the
day after he unveiled his innovation agenda at Google headquarters.
These entrepreneurs,
academics, and innovators are drivers in the effort to recapture American
competitiveness.
“Senator Obama not only understands good tech policy, but he also understands the best
policy so that tech can do some good,” said Lawrence Lessig, founder of Stanford Law
School’s Center for Internet and Society.
“By committing to opening government data,
an Obama administration would provide all of us the tools we need to make government
work for us, and not for the special interests that flourish in the shadows of a
nontransparent government.
”
"I want my kids to grow up in an Obama America - an America in which, as Barack
Obama has said, we stop setting settling for what the cynics say we have to accept and
reach for what we know is possible,” said Julius Genachow
