Are you interested in becoming an organizer in your area?

Yes

Tell us about your experience with alternative energy:

I have no direct experience in the industry yet. When I was a young boy between 10 and 15, my dad introduced me to solar power. This was in the mid to late 70's. As you can imagine the technology was complicated, obnoxiously oversized, expensive and required a lot of maintenance. I remember going to trade shows with him and getting books and information packets about solar energy. I remember how badly he wanted to do a conversion on our house but couldn't justify the expense with all of the unknowns. I remember telling him if there was ever a way, I would get actively involved with solar and wind power. I am ready to begin fulfilling that promise.

What excites you about this campaign?

This is the first real campaign to bring about the change to renewable and sustainable energy that I have ever seen. I own a small remodeling company and when I started it just over a year ago, my ultimate goal was to make it productive enough to build the capital I need to move into solar and wind power. The economy has hurt greatly and I have not gained the capital I need to make this happen on my own. Then I saw a tv ad from T. Boone Pickens. My first thought was here is a guy that realistically has the ability and resources to bring about the change that millions of Americans so desperately need. To create and actually implement renewable clean energy that will not only be a major benefit to out health and environment, but will benefit the pocketbooks of all Americans. I would love to be a part of your team and this movement. Don't get me wrong, I am also money motivated and plan to build my business and be a major player in this industry while doing what I truly believe to be the right thing for the good of all.

What do you want to do to help?

Whatever I can. What do you folks have in mind? When can I meet Mr. Pickens?

Thanks for offering REAL help! Welcome.

Hope you can:
1. bring at least 5 friends and associates to the site
2. hit the red Contact Congress button to email your legislators and governors a request that they sign the pledge
3. get some pledges signed and faxed in to Boone. If you can get over 100 we would be proud to have you in the 100CLUB!

PLEASE see this video: http://push.pickensplan.com/video/video/show?id=2187034:Video:1249346 . It is very clear to even the "Gang of 20" pro alternative /renewable legislators that they will need significant and vocal support to "push back" the naysayers and give them a place to hang their "political hat" to support this plan. IT IS PURLEY POLITICAL. PERIOD. END OF STORY. Our success will be in our numbers!

Please get pledges signed and fax them in. We all meet so many people everyday, and they have not been counted yet. How badly do we want this? THEY ARE TELLING US THEY NEED HUGE numbers. Can we do it? ARE YOU IN?

Best
Kim
