there's an online petition asking obama to create a secretary of the arts. a cabinet member.
quincy jones was interviewed on wnyc's "soundcheck," and he says his next goal in life is to have the position created. why not? all the other industrialized countries have one. the united states could certainly use someone at the top rooting for all of the creatives. finally, a position in the cabinet that i would totally go for.
