    President Obama pledged to do this very thing during some of his campaign speeches.  We’ll see if he follows through.  Hopefully this will lead the way for all governments, big and small, to follow suit.  Now, since we are unable to cite the speech(es) we are referring to, we thought it would be a great idea to be able to do this.  So, your idea led us to another idea, and we are now putting together a ‘Catalogue of Obama Promises:  In His Own Words’.  This will be an easy to use excel file that will reference all of his promises complete with citations.  This might take a while.  We have 2,265 pages to go through but anticipate having this completed before innaguration.  It will be available for download (and sharing) on this website.  Power to the people!  Energía a la gente!
