Communications/Internet:

• In a podcast , Sen. Obama favors the Snowe-Dorgan Net neutrality amendment, saying, “It is because the Internet is a neutral platform that I can put out this podcast and transmit it over the Internet without having to go through any corporate media middleman. I can say what I want without censorship or without having to pay a special charge.” http://www.itconsulting.com/features/technology-presidential-vote-candidate-positions-020507/
• Obama has also expressed skepticism about the Bush administration’s warrantless wiretapping. http://www.itconsulting.com/features/technology-presidential-vote-candidate-positions-020507/

Health Care:
From his website:

• Supports genomics (gene therapy) & introduced a bill… “the Genomics and Personalized Medicine Act to overcome the scientific barriers, adverse market pressures, and outdated federal regulations that have stood in the way of better medicine.”
• ”…introduce(d) the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program Efficiency Act to…require medical insurance companies that deal with the federal government to implement an electronic system for efficient and effective settlement of medical claims.”
• ”…introduced the Hospital Quality Report Card Act to require hospitals to report on the effectiveness, safety and timeliness of the care they provide.”

Government Spending:
From his website:

• “Every American has the right to know how the government spends their tax dollars, but for too long that information has been largely hidden from public view. That's why Senator Obama and Senator Tom Coburn (R-OK) teamed up to pass a law that will lift the veil of secrecy in Washington by creating a Google-like search engine that will allow regular people to track approximately $1 trillion in federal grants, contracts, earmarks and loans online. More than 100 organizations across the political spectrum praised this legislation.”
• “Senator Obama introduced legislation to create an independent ethics commission to receive complaints from the public on alleged ethics violations by members of Congress, staff, and lobbyists. The commission would have the authority to investigate complaints and present public findings of fact about possible violations to the House and Senate Ethics Committee and Justice Department. By taking the initial fact finding out of the hands of members of Congress, who are often reluctant to investigate their colleagues, the bill ensures prompt and fair treatment of public complaints.”

Homosexuality:

• “Obama issued a statement on Thursday, saying, “I do not agree with General Pace that homosexuality is immoral. Attempts to divide people like this have consumed too much of our politics over the past six years.”
