a bit of advice to obama

[historian]

I think he should allow cspan into the white house once a week for an hour or so when members of public can call in and ask him specific questions, especially about what he is confronting in the sleazy halls of congress. That might keep our so called reps on their toes and give people hope that they are regaining a small measure of control back. Optimistic? Perhaps but what else is there? If govt continues in secret mode we be screwed the same all over, only thin time without that f....g cretin in the white house.

1. Excellent idea!

I think Congressmen and women should do something similar on their local radio stations.

2. That's not a bad idea, although I'd prefer email to screen the crazies

I think you'll see a lot more transparency and accessibility in government under an Obama administration.

3. It is excruciating to listen to some callers.

Some of them can't get to the point.
