A Presidential Candidate Says the B-word
(previous | next)
 

Alas, broadband policy is on the table. From the transcript of John Kerry's speech today:

I will set out the details of this economic plan in the weeks ahead. I'll focus on raising American competitiveness:

-- Spurring the growth of new industries like the broadband technology that will dominate the future.

-- Lowering health care costs that put American businesses at a competitive and price disadvantage.

-- Making sure our children have the education and our workers have the training and skills they need.

-- And lowering energy costs which burden businesses and consumers and creating half a million new jobs in renewable fuels to make America energy independent of Mideast oil in ten years.

A reference to broadband before health care, no less?
