It is clear that Obama and global, political leaders at large need to address transparency and the role that internet plays in contemporary american and foreign governance. The string of US leaks, US corruption and US abuses of power (Guantanamo, IRS, Wikileaks, Manning, Monsanto, Iron Triangle, etc) warrants a direct address and open public discussion of these three global heros: E Snowden, J Assange and B Manning.
Our half corrupt government is failing its people. Extremely unequal distribution of wealth and the rise of corporate personhood in the republic of the USA needs attention, debated by Obama and his cabinet, attuned to context: importance of internet and tech advancement to governmental responsibility of benefiting the people via transparency and equality of voice.
