Dom endorsar Obama

Sen. Obama understands that basic research is fundamental to how scientific advances are made. He sees the importance of expanding funding for \"high-risk, high-return\" work, strengthening tax policy to spur R&D, and encouraging the careers of young scientists who pursue innovative lines of thinking. He has offered a comprehensive plan to reinvigorate math and science education, and he recognizes the vital importance of re-architecting nationwide science literacy for these times. His positions on topics ranging from agriculture, alternative energy, and medical research to internet policy, patent law, and space are more robust and ultimately more in line with scientific consensus than those of Sen. McCain.

Our access to information today is unprecedented; the ability of\nindividual citizens to discover and share important new ideas is\ngreater than it has ever been in our history; important ideas are able\nto bubble up and become visible to those who need to know them.\nBarack Obama understands this. His campaign has demonstrated\nhis ability to harness the internet not only for fundraising, but also\nhis comfort with its decentralized nature.
