Put an Energy Revolution in Motion!

On Day 1, the next president should demonstrate the political will to create the energy revolution that this world needs. He or she should take steps to reduce and eventually eliminate the nation's dependency on oil. If this isn't done, we'll all find ourselves in big trouble a few years down the road. In this way, the president can demonstrate the kind of courage and leadership that we constantly say we have, and our country can prove its benevolence to the planet.

Global-Warming Antidote: Be an Example for Us All!

Install solar-energy roof panels atop the White House to supply all electrical energy the WH uses (and give some back to the grid). Convert WH limos/cars to plug-in hybrids, to show the rest of us the way. This is a no-brainer: Some solar company/association would do it for free for the publicity (the real point, of course). Ditto the car company you choose to donate the electric vehicles. You'll have to show some backbone re bucking the auto/oil interests, who will oppose it. CAN YOU????

Economic & Military Solution

The U.S. economy can be sufficiently stimulated with a new industrialized conversion of factories for the mass production of solar panels etc. much like the mass production which took place during the world wars. It would boost our economy and free us from our insatiable appetite for oil. By doing so, it would send a clear message to the rest of the world that we are the leaders in pursuing alternative energy sources and therefore would no longer need to occupy Middle Eastern Muslim nations.

It is time to begin ridding

It is time to begin ridding the world of nuclear weapons, not planning new designs. If the we want nuclear proliferation to end. we need to take a leadership role in removing them, persuading out allies like Israel and the UK to do the same instead of planning to use them against countries which lack them.

It is time to recognize that

It is time to recognize that Arnold Swartzenegger is correct. Truly fiscally conservative individuals are environmental sensitive. Only a fiscally liberal individual ignores environmental concerns. President Bush by catering to corporations in regards to the environment has been quite fiscally liberal. What our nation has lacked is leadership in implementing new technologies to lower carbon emmissions. All we have gotten is lip service. Our federal government has failed to use its purchasing pow
