Get Naked and...
Rule the world...
"Smart companies are sharing secrets with rivals, blogging about products in their pipeline, even admitting to their failures. The name of this new game is RADICAL TRANSPARENCY, and it's sweeping boardrooms across the nation. Even those Office drones at Dunder Mifflin get it. So strip down and learn how to have it all by baring it all."
The latest cover of Wired Magazine, has the girl from "The Office" and Napoleon Dino mite's love interest in blades of glory, proclaiming, "Get naked and rule the world". She is not wearing any clothes, but she is not really advocating that we all take off our clothes. It is a figure of speech.
Naked, in this sense, means transparent.
Mitt Romney wants, like the other candidates, to rule the world, so I suggest (along with this article) that he gets naked.

It is called, "The See-Through CEO". The intro says, "Fire the publicist. Go off message. Let all your employees blab and blog. In the new world of radical transparency, the path to business success is clear."
From here on out I'm going to assume you have read the article (so go read it) and agree that the presidential candidates should get naked (or go transparent).
How would they do this? I have a lot of ideas, but would like to hear yours also. Just e-mail me.
If I was a candidate I would:
- Release all book reports I have ever done. People will assume the worse. It is better for them to have the facts.
- Post every picture, in all my photo albums. I have nothing to hide. Post some of them on Google's photo site, some on Yahoo's, some on Flickr, and see what happens.
- Use a lie detector in all debates. I have nothing to be ashamed of.
People have presently not liked a book that Mitt Romney said he liked. They are saying all sorts of crazy stuff about him, because there is a lack of information. Scientist know that a vacuum gets filled. If the candidate does not stuff stuff into the public interest, they will just make stuff up. People were saying, on this New York Times site, that Romney has only read 3 books in his life. That he is not read. That none of his books get opened, that he only reads science fiction, that his book choice shows that he is not intellectually curious. These people are all stupid, but they are stupid voters. Mitt Romney has done a great job of convincing smart, big shot, insiders to support him. He has more endorsements than any other 2008 presidential candidate. But he needs to get his message out to these stupid people that are going to just assume stupid stuff about him, if he doesn't prostitute his complete life story all over his website.
If he went into storage, and got every single book report that he wrote, while earning his English degree, people wouldn't say this stupid stuff. Romney received his English degree valedictorian. He is very well read, but how are we to know it, unless he publishes his college book reports.
Hillary was a radical at college. Romney should say that he will release all his book reports, and papers, if she will.
