Americans Elect leaders recently started a process by which the public can know more about the organization. First, various leaders of Americans Elect have spent two hours being interviewed by blogger Solomon Kleinsmith, of Rise of the Center. Kleinsmith has not yet posted the details of his interviews, but he describes the Americans Elect leaders he has interviewed here. Also, he confirms that Americans Elect has no ideological litmus test for candidates who wish to seek its presidential nomination. See here.
Also, Americans Elect has told Jim Cook, of Irregular Times, that the group will reveal more about its funding, and its leaders, by the end of August. See here.
If it wasn’t for Jim Cook, AE wouldnt have been FORCED to reveal this information. Hooray for Jim! I can’t wait to find out more info about AE.

Although I enjoy Jim Cook’s reporting I don’t think this was the sole reason for AE’s revelations. I don’t think AE was “FORCED” by Jim.
No ideology? Great idea! What do ideas matter when electing a president?
See the Churchill quote about the Russian leadership – enigma, riddle etc.
#2 You are correct. JC wasn’t the sole reason. But, he played a major role in revealing some major stuff about AE that might not have otherwise been reported and therefore AE might not have given this information. Yes, he wasn’t the ONLY reason, but he was a major reason.
Is Americans Elect PR dept incompetent?
