The only issue I see with more use of the Internet is how to prevent hacking.

But aside from that, I do hope to see more qualitative efforts being made to create a “truth” site and speak about the debates and candidates as they really are and no being slanted to certain mediums owners back pockets.

Just my two cents – don’t believe everything you read!
