“Our commitment to openness means more than simply informing the American people about how decisions are made. It means recognizing that government does not have all the answers and that public officials need to draw on what citizens know...I’m directing members of my Administration to find new ways of tapping the knowledge and experience of ordinary Americans...Because the way to solve the problems of our time as one nation is by involving the American people in the policies that affect their lives.” (President Obama, January 21, 2009)
