Re: Vint Cerf tickled by O'Bama's Irish?

If Cerf would be tapped for the position, don't expect him to just bend over and allow Obama to be his puppet master. Cerf is one of the good guys and he's not going to allow others to tell him how he should think. Felten and Lessig I think would be great for the jobs as well for the same reasons (and they will be even less willing to cave into pressure).

I honestly don't think any of them will be tapped though. Not enough of the big corps would back them unfortunately.
