The United States has been a world leader in technical areas for many years, albeit not the only leader. But because we proclaim a belief in free enterprise and trade we have been able to see our country grow and prosper and be an example to other nations who would perhaps take a less open tack. The phrase often attributed to President John F. Kennedy is that a rising tide lifts all boats, meaning that free, fair and open trade benefits all who participate, and so is better than special inside deals, controls, and crony capitalism.
The technical revolution has truly been a goldmine for the United States, and the perception that our economy supports openness and fairness means that we have often been the standard bearer for some of the developments that we managed for the world at large, none more important than the internet. There have already been many examples of countries trying to limit access and information exchanges to control their populations, but the U.S. has played a key role in keeping the internet open and free.
President Obama was elected in part to provide change, and it seems that he is anxious to change anything where the U.S. provides leadership and stature in the international arena. One area where the U.S. has provided leadership and open access has been our management of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) that manages back-stage workings of the internet and how numerical IP addresses pair up with their familiar web addresses. While it is essentially invisible to internet users, it is critical to how the internet works and how users connect with their desired information sources. The U.S. has done an admirable and unimpeachable job in handling the task, and in this case it seems that the phrase “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” should apply, but it won’t. For some reason the decision has been made to hand off control of ICANN to an outside group, with that effort close to completion.

That is why we, the people, need to hold them responsible for their actions…even if it calls to put them on trail for treason for not doing their duty that they were sworn to do…

when is the do-nothing congress grow some balls and impeach this moslem traitor ???
If you plan to vote for Cruz you MUST know the facts, because the media will not tell you.
There is great conspiracy going on to fraud the American people out of their country.
Feel free to check these for yourself, they are all true!
Cruz’ wife, Heidi, has been employed by Goldman Sachs since 2005. She is on leave as managing director and regional head of private wealth management. Heidi is a proud member of the leftist Council on Foreign Relations, advocates of one world government and the New World Order, which happens to be the goal of their religious theology, 7 mountains Dominionism – world$#%&!@*by their church leaders, of which Cruz is touted as being a chosen one by Glenn Beck, as well as Cruz’ own father.
Ted was George W.’s brain when he ran for President. A top policy adviser.
Ted maneuvered for Solicitor General in the Bush administration, but settled for a plum job at the Federal Trade Commission.
Ted has DEEP ties to the political and financial establishment.
Ted and Heidi brag about being the first “Bush marriage”, since they met as Bush staffers which ultimately led to marriage.
Cruz was an adviser on legal affairs while Heidi was an adviser on economic policy and eventually director for the Western Hemisphere on the National Security Council under Condoleezza Rice. Rice give us the phony war in Iraq.
Heidi Cruz also served as Deputy U.S. Trade Representative to USTR head Robert Zoellick.
At USTR Heidi worked on U.S.-China trade policy, the one Donald Trump talks & warns us about so much.
Chad Sweet, Ted Cruz’s campaign chairman, is a former CIA officer.
Michael Chertoff, George W. Bush’s former Secretary of Homeland Security, hired Sweet from Goldman Sachs to restructure and optimize the flow of information between the CIA, FBI and other members of the national security community and DHS. Chertoff and Sweet co-founded the Chertoff Group upon leaving the administration.
NOTE: A known tactic of the intelligence community is the use of strategic communications as a “soft power” weapon against itsb adversaries — the creation ofb false narratives by the effective use of all media — social, digital, newspaper, print, etc. Combined with denial and deception, it can be a potent force. Glenn Beck and Mark Levin are testaments to this.
Ted Cruz is NOT who he appears to be. As the bible says, “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in the clothing of sheep, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.” In this case we must beware a Canadian bearing gifts.
VOTE WISELY!
No!!!!
If Obama can screw something up, he will do it!
this is what you get and can expect when you leave this country in the hands of this kind of President, who has no respect, or regard for a FREE country. He almost is intent on the fall of this once great nation. So sad.
BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA,, AMERICA IS A CHRISTIAN COUNTRY,, FREEDOM TO SPEAK,, YOU ARE NOT IN MEDDLE EAST,, WHY YOU’RE AFRAID….GO TO HE’LL IDIOT,, RADICAL MOSLEM….LIAR…TREASON..
TRUE AMERICAN. PEOPLE WAKE UP FIGHTS FOR YOUR. RIGHTS YOU’RE. RUNNING OUT OF TIME…
BEFORE IT’S. TO LATE……
