I would rather focus on the change I have seen. Just one example of more transparency - Obama's EO that restores the intent of the Freedom of Information Act....giving us, the "people" greater access to government documents.
Change will be incremental and most Obama supporters dont expect miracles....just something better and more accountable than the last eight years.

I still suspect you are not going to get your hands on much more than you did in the past. The same people that redact the documents released to the public still work in the same offices. The people who get to say what is released to the public have not left because Bush left. I think that if you think you are going to have greater access to government documents, you are going to be sorely disappointed.
