Then head over to www.change.gov.  One of the total whiffs of fresh air of the new administration is transparency and communication that we have never had before in the United States.  As those in Illinois have experienced over the past couple of years with Senator Obama with his Senate website (http://obama.senate.gov/) , we have now begun to experience a politician of the modern age who embraces communications technology.  He will be the first president to podcast, vodcast, and youtube us weekly to keep us in the loop and give us his rationale for the decisions has made/will make and legislation he has proposed/will propose.  For once in a long time, we will have a president that encourages dialogue and is helping democracy to spill into new mediums.  He is certainly not perfect and will make mistakes, but he may be the perfect communicator for our time setting a example for presidents to come.  Although, they will have to pry his Blackberry out of his hand.  According to the right sidebar of Change.gov, it does appear that his priorities will be:

• Revitalizing the Economy
• Ending the War in Iraq
• Providing Health Care for All
• Protecting America
• Renewing American Global Leadership
