Alternative Energy and the Presidental Candidates

We have the knowledge. We have the technology. What we lack is a government who seems capable of devising , supporting, and implementing a  plan to free us from our dependence on foreign oil. American's also on the other hand seem to have a very short attention span.  Our economy is going down the tubes and fast.  This isn't the first time, we have been there before. Our memory seems to blot that all out when fuel prices drop we waste no time wasting, producing, buying and using cars that get low mpg etc.  Only when it truly hurts us in the pocketbook do we suddenly switch into our conservation mode. We need to be in this for the long haul, permanently and totally.  We need to elect a president who will commit to rapid deployment of a plan of energy independence. We need to use every resource available to us to reduce consumption of fossil fuels. We need to take full advantage of natural energy sources such as wind power and solar power. We need to use our technological knowledge of hybrid cars, v2g technologies etc.  They all play a vital role in reducing our dependence on foreign oil and improving our environment not to mention relieving our suffering economy.

Re: Alternative Energy and the Presidental Candidates

I agree that we need government involvement, a good plan, and a substantial financial commitment.  But because politicians get so much support from oil and coal interests, I'm not sure that's going to happen.  We as individuals need to lead the way, and not be discouraged by those who want us to believe that there is too little benefit for the cost of alternative technologies.  That is simply not true.  We can do it, we should do it.  We're lucky to have discussion sites like this one, and various websites and blogs that help show us how.  This isn't the 1970's; there's a lot of good equipment out there at reasonable prices.  Now is the time to show the politicians how it's done.
