open thread: Dean @ Lessig http://cyberlaw.stanford.edu/lessig/blog/archives/2003_07.shtml#001360
Let me be perfectly honest. In the space of this week on the blog, I will not be able to answer every specific question. I know that people here care deeply about intellectual property. I’m here to listen.
As a doctor, I’m trained to base my decisions on facts. ... Facts are a better basis for decisions than ideology.
It sounds like Dean is posting more for information-gathering purposes than to lay out his own ideas about copyright, patents, and intellectual property. What do you think? comment on how you think Dean has made use of the forum granted to him by Lessig thus far, and what you'd like to see.

About Nation-Building
Nation-Building was founded by Aziz Poonawalla in August 2002 under the name Dean Nation. Dean Nation was the very first weblog devoted to a presidential candidate, Howard Dean, and became the vanguard of the Dean netroot phenomenon, raising over $40,000 for the Dean campaign, pioneering the use of Meetup, and enjoying the attention of the campaign itself, with Joe Trippi a regular reader (and sometime commentor). Howard Dean himself even left a comment once. Dean Nation was a group weblog effort and counts among its alumni many of the progressive blogsphere's leading talent including Jerome Armstrong, Matthew Yglesias, and Ezra Klein. After the election in 2004, the blog refocused onto the theme of "purple politics", formally changing its name to Nation-Building in June 2006. The primary focus of the blog is on articulating purple-state policy at home and pragmatic liberal interventionism abroad.
