We need 'Green Jobs' now. Wind energy, solar energy and natural gas will help end the massive outflow of money overseas and keep it here on our soil.
Vote for the candidate that stimulates the economy with wind energy, solar energy and natural gas.

Clearly all of this will take money. But where could it come from? Probably the war!

It can come from those 'windfall profits' oil companies have been making since oil went sky high! It's time to start converting to 'wind power'. You may not like him due to his past actions, but T Boone Pickens the oil man from Oklahoma that had a thing against John Kerry in 2004, is suddenly saying we need to get out froim under foriegn oil and energy debts. He is actually putting up 'wind farms' here in Oklahoma and in Texas as well. He claims that Natural Gas is a 'good' stop gapr transition fuel we can use until we fully develope power from Hydrogen Cells for example. He may have profit making intent, but what he said is true, we need to ween ourselves away from foriegn energy sources from 'oil'.
Then of course Al Gore, my personal favorite, wants to try to control these ghg emission fuels using the 'carbon tax'. There's plenty of incentive to earn 'carbon credits' and to promote clean energy. Even natural gas isn't exactly clean, but it is s transitional fuel that can be used while we develope better energy sources. As for 'clean coal', I lived in the Ohio Valley all of my life and 'never' saw any clean fossil fuels, especially coal. The best use of coal is for coal tar which can be used for many organic compound derivatives.
Nuclear power? Since 3 Mile Island, I wonder if any nuclear plant is actually safe. I lived 20 miles away from the Submarine Plant built in the Ohio Valley in 1957, and suffered congenital defects that led to Crohn's Disease. And John McCain wants to build more?
I say solar, wind, and hydroelectric sources are BEST to develope.
