Obama pushes broadband expansion proposal

The following response is based upon this article by the CNN Wire Staff.

This article discusses President Obama's plan to extend wireless coverage to more than 98% of Americans, which is one of his main goals for our country right now. He has had this idea for quite some time and highlight it specifically in his State of the Union speech a few weeks ago. Obama believes that this plan is necessary for the new and developing global marketplace. In order for our economy to thrive he believes our telecommunications need to be improved greatly, yet he has many opponents in this idea. Even the GOP disagrees with this potential proposal, for they say it won't create more jobs and it is unnecessary spending. Yet, Obama believes that increasing wireless connection is the key to creating new innovations, new investments, and more jobs for the people. And according to the White House, the 2009 stimulus package included $7 billion for the adoption of greater broadband access for America.

Who: President Obama and his administration.
What: His proposal for broadband expansion throughout America.
When: He outlined plans for a broadband expansions proposal this Thursday.
Where: This will effect all people in America.

This CBT states that God has partnered with people, in order to further His kingdom on Earth. He works through others in order to bring about salvation and redemption, which can only be found through our Lord, Jesus Christ. This article displays Obama's need to expand broadband in order to get all Americans connected and make our economy stronger. While, he may want this proposal to be passed so we become a more up-to-date nation, God can use to bring together His people closer and bring more to salvation.
