Can I say it? I'm so tired of $3.95 gall/gas. All we do is pay for this energy that few of us

seem to benefit from. My spouse and I and two college students...believe me, we are getting eaten alive and that's after the purchase of 3/4 small cars.

I want Obama in office because he offers the best chance, and I do mean chance, of energy independence in the US. Why is it so hard for Americans to see that we have the sun and the wind to do the energy work needed in our building structures and so on.

We need help people.

1. Don't worry, gas won't be $3.95/gal much longer.

Next year it will be $5.25

2. I'm really worried about the economy before and after the election.

Things are not good, not good at all.

3. We have the opportunity to truly change our lives for the better. Can you

imagine having clean air and local food? We have to listen to http://www.kunstler.com/">James Howard Kunstler who advocates relocalization and better planning of our living arrangements that depend less on oil and more on alternatives and more sustainable energy sources.

4. Its all possible. Its all doable. None of it will happen unless we opt to suppress some of the

economic predators in our midst. We are overrun with them. The corporate beasts determine everything now...
