Comments on: Vint Cerf backs Obama for U.S. president

Internet legend says he's casting his vote because of Obama's position on Net neutrality.

Talk about a single issue voter!

But, I missed the part of the Constitution where the federal government is granted the right to pass laws regarding Internet bandwidth usage one way or the other. Guess that interstate commerce clause just keeps getting broader and broader.

Cerf had nothing to do with creating the Internet (is he trying to take credit because his name is a play on "surfing ('cerfing') the web"? very suspicious, indeed).

Al Gore created it, and through him Obama can also claim this honor. Who are we to disagree? It would be racist to do so, you anti-communist fools!

Actually, yes, he did.

This explains why McCain ads are getting removed fro YouTube and Obama's are not.


The new taxes Obama will put on Google will far outweigh any bandwidth neutrality issues.
