Patent Law

Fact & Fiction

By Gary Odom and Jordan Kuhn

Democratic nominee for President Barack Obama:

I'm going to make... judgments not based on some fierce ideological pre-disposition, but based on what makes sense. I'm a big believer in evidence. I'm a big believer in fact... We've got offices like the patent office that are outdated to take advantage of new discoveries here in the United States.

With regard to patents, the greenhorn nominee appears all hat and no cattle. He doesn't have a clue what he is talking about. The "big believer in fact" seems fresh out.

Who knows what military-industrial-complex McCain thinks he knows about patents.
