a ton of things went through my head when he said that...
- this is a Republican but he seemed extremely well versed in Open
Source
- this was such an obscure reference for the viewership of CNN - as you
said, "I'm not sure if anyone else understood what he was talking about"
- that he simultaneously was giving props to Obama for his reaching out
to those who didn't vote for him while laying a foundation for his plans
for the rebuilding of America and connected it to the Open Source
movement.
