  • Abstract
    Mitt romney and Barack Obama, the major party U.S. presidential candidates, say little about how the United States runs its vast R&D enterprise. Their inattention is peculiar, given the annual cost: US $140 billion. However, Obama and Romney, despite many differences elsewhere, agree on the way forward: Spend more money on more ambitious projects.
