of what is being put forth for discussion. Transparency is a good candidate for understanding as it applies to a political campaign promise.
Her is a partial from Webster I think applies:

2 a: free from pretense or deceit : frank b: easily detected or seen through : obvious c: readily understood d: characterized by visibility or accessibility of information especially concerning business practices

In my opinion the other variants were not applicable.

Hence the definition bespeaks to the impossibility of ANY politician being able to deliver, or operate with transparency. The term and process had the right ring to it for one to campaign with....it sounded right. It was not more meaningful than chum being thrown in the water to bait the naive....as all campaign promises are.....bait.

Chum = bait= entice = : to attract artfully or adroitly or by arousing hope or desire : tempt

And that is all it is to politicians.

The promise of operating in a fog would be an improvement over the current actual (or any other administration for that matter).
