Over the weekend President-elect Barack Obama scrubbed Change.gov, his transition Web site, deleting most of what had been a massive agenda copied directly from his campaign Web site.
Gone are the promises on how an Obama administration would handle 25 different agenda items - everything from Iraq and immigration to taxes and urban policy - all items laid out on his campaign Web site, www.BarackObama.com.
Instead, the official agenda on Change.gov has been boiled down to one vague paragraph proclaiming a plan to revive the economy, to fix our health care, education, and social security systems, to define a clear path to energy independence, to end the war in Iraq responsibly and finish our mission in Afghanistan, and to work with our allies to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon, among many other domestic and foreign policy objectives.
We are currently retooling the Web site, said Obama spokesman Nick Shapiro.
The site went active on Wednesday and was available to the public Thursday. The agenda items, which were active for at least part of the weekend, appear to have been deleted by late Saturday.

Unfortunately yes, but I didn't think it would happen this soon. Until the other, more Conservative, Republican candidates dropped out of the primary, one by one, BEFORE I EVEN GOT A SAY IN THE MATTER. Then I was pretty sure it would happen, this election cycle. Of course I well remember Bob Dull, when we should have had Phil Gramm, who while not perfect, is at least interesting. And of course I also remember when another American War Hero, another Navy pilot in fact, was turned out for a dope smoking hippy draft dodger. So yea, I figured it would happen, sooner or later.
I was really hoping for later, much, much later. Although now that it has happened I wish it had happened sooner before I got old and arthritic, so I could help save the future of my kids, and now grand kids.
I went to AmeriCorps. http://www.americorpsalums.org/ At bottom left, I found this —> 1- Alums Career Center.
2- Professional Development Series
3- Jobs For Change (a Change.org initiative) THE LAST LINK TOOK ME TO

00PS! That was ‘change Dot org’.
But I still don’t think AmeriCorps should be helping people find a jobs with groups like CODE PINK.
