President-Elect Obama is much more a 'reformer' than a 'progressive'

Image via WikipediaWe congratulate Barack Obama on his campaign victory for US President. In Washington terms, many consider him, while of course a Democrat, of being a 'reformer'. Democratic 'progressives' promote some government reforms, but I haven't heard that label put on Obama very much.

President-Elect Obama acted as a candidate and as US Senator against several key 'progressive' issues. These included energy, environment, defense spending, and tax policy.

As a 'reformer', however, he reached across the aisle for earmark spending reform, campaign finance reform, ethics reform, and government openness and transparency reforms.

All Things Reform looks forward to watching Obama bring much-neglected reforms to today's federal government. He will do this with cutting-edge communications technologies.
