Are you interested in becoming an organizer in your area?
Maybe--But Not Sure What to Organize
Tell us about your experience with alternative energy:
Nothing but I'm hoping to change that because I love the science behind it all.
What excites you about this campaign?
I want to one day be a mainstream politician so I figured I can use Pickens plan to give me that boos that I need. if you pay attention to all of my posts you will see that I stick closely to current events. don't be afraid to argue with me because I always love to argue and I see an argument as an opportunity to gain knowledge and I live by the saying "Stand up for what you think is right even if your the only one standing". I am neither on Barack Obamas side or John Mccains side and I am one who after extensive research believe that bush was a good leader... Of Texas. But most people tell me that my opinions are completely Republican with a hint of Democrat. I am a leader and not a follower so if you says something don't expect me to pass it on unless I use it as a quote. On a further note, I hate illegal immigrants. If you think you can live for free of my tax money, I beg to differ and i will find you and make sure you are deported. I don't care if your here for a political instability reason, if Haitians can rough it out, so can you. But what I'm trying to say is if you want to stay here, you have to be apart of my countries tax system or i will discriminate you. Some people call me a racist because they don't see where I am coming from but to tell you the truth I hate arrogance and stereotypes. I respect people of all races, religions, and sex just as long as you are here legally. If my government can't track you, than I will.
Anyways, if you have a conflict for me or a question feel free to ask. I am a very opinionated person and if you can provide substantial evidence that i find competes with my opinions, I will be willing to change it. I know that some aspects of my opinion are overly radical, or possibly wrong and I am going to be the one to admit. But heck life is one big learning experience and I am open minded to a point.
Anyways feel free to contact me because I love iteration and I am still a high school student and i am eager to learn; for i hope to become president someday.

What do you want to do to help?
As a future politician, I hope to use this as an oppurtunity to learn from other peoples mistakes, network with politicians, learn the issues of our great and incredible country.

it auto adresses the e-mail to all your reps and the GOV.
of your state based on zip code. Has a sugested draft of a letter to send. NEVER EASYER. Spread the word to click on the ACTION CENTER at the main web site.
Hi Teale,
Welcome and THANK YOU for joining Pickens Plan.
Here are a few ways that you can help.
SHARE THE PLAN
with your circle of friends, family and associates. Urge them to JOIN. From your own experience you know it is very much like simply signing a petition. The larger our membership the more likely we will be successful in getting Congress to provide effective incentives for alternative and renewable energies and in insuring that our future president will treat energy independence as a matter of the greatest urgency, applying the same kind of leadership as JFK exercised when he led us with his stirring challenge to put a man on the moon in 10 years. Please take the time today to bring 5 new members to the site.
THERE IS NO TIME TO DELAY
…to wait and see…or to see if someone else will step up to the plate. It is time for US to roll up our sleeves and go to work. Right now momentum is working in our favor, but if gas prices retreat, the public will forget the pain, and our moment may be lost. How frightening to think that we could be looking back and apologizing to our children that we could not to get this done when we had the chance.
FOR MORE INFORMATION
Check out Pickens "August Call to Action"- for a course of action!
Here is an informative video "Topeka, Kansas Town Hall Meeting": http://www.pickensplan.com/news/2008/08/04/video-of-the-topeka-town-hall
Here is Boone's appearrance on Larry King Live: http://www.pickensplan.com/news/2008/08/05/last-nights-larry-king-live-appearance/
Feel free to add me as a friend. I would be happy to answer any questions about the plan or navigation of the site.
PERSONAL ACTION OPTIONS
We need to do more than “preach to the choir”. Sharing ideas with each other is encouraging but that will not 1) increase our membership nor 2) influence public policy. If you know someone in the press or someone who blogs - get them to cover this. Write to your Congressman/woman. Ask those in the public eye to support this plan. Print downloadable flyers and put them in your car and/or business window.
A GROUP FOR EVERYONE
Check out the many groups for Solar, CNG, scientists, hydrogen etc. Connect, learn and share. We grow stronger with your input. If you don't see a group that speaks to your interest, then start a group of your own.
Thanks again for joining us in this historical effort.

It does come down very easy. It has a hinge on it that will allow two people to take it down, let the storm pass, and put it back up!
You are back in business.
Thank you for your contact. I appreciate your interest in the Windspire. It is designed for individual homes, businesses, and other remote or seperate buildings. There are many places where the Windspire will cut power costs and many places in the world where electricity is nonexistent or it is very hard to supply power to these areas.
I will give you a list of stock answers (below) regarding the Windspire. If you want more information, please ask.
Aloha,
Bill
Why Choose Windspire?
Windspire offers clean, renewable energy that can reduce your electricity bills, with key advantages over other renewable energy systems:
Aesthetically Inspiring
Windspire was designed to be uniquely aesthetic and compatible for the areas where we live and work. The low-profile, unobtrusive design blends in easily with the surrounding environment. Mesmerizing and relaxing to watch, the Windspire is truly visually inspiring.
Virtually Silent
Windspire is nearly silent. We estimate the maximum noise level at about 45 dB, taken 5 feet from the base (if you are standing right under it). This is well below the 65 to 100 dB noise levels of many turbines on the market.
Low Cost
At an MSRP of only $4995 for a 1.2kW wind generator, the Windspire is priced well below other renewable alternatives. If rebates are available in your area, your net cost would be even lower. The price includes the poles, inverter, wireless performance monitor, and the hinged monopole, so there are no expensive extras to buy.
Easy to Install
No cranes, no guy wires - the Windspire really is simple to install. Your installer will simply pour a concrete foundation, assemble the unit on the ground, and raise the hinged unit with a winch (or motor or vehicle). Once the foundation has set, the installation can be completed in just a few hours. Our Plug 'n Produce system allows you to simply plug the Windspire into your home or building like an appliance, or alternatively you can have it hard-wired, to begin providing power.
Extremely Low Maintenance
Windspire is very easy to maintain. Once a year, add a little grease to an easy-to-reach bearing. Simple!
High Quality
Windspire uses a durable corrosion-protected steel and aircraft grade aluminum construction, designed to operate for 20 years or more. With quality oversized bearings combined with a very simple mechanical structure, it is sure to provide reliable operation for years, even in high winds (up to 100 mph), snow and ice.
Clean, Abundant Renewable Energy
Wind power is from a clean, natural source that does not emit pollution of any kind. No emissions to lower our air quality or exacerbate global warming; no nuclear waste to bury away - just pure, clean wind. Wind will be a source of power as long as the earth orbits the sun and we have night and day. Wind is infinitely renewable, and it's there for the taking. Why waste wind?
Offset Global Warming
Wind is a source of power which doesn't require burning fossil fuels like coal, gas, oil, or other hydrocarbon fuels. By drawing power from a clean source, you are offsetting the need for power from dirty sources which emit greenhouse gases and contribute to the ill effects of global warming, not to mention poor air quality at ground level.
Personal Independence from Grid Power and Grid Prices
Electricity rates have been steadily rising for the last few years. For many people, the electricity bill is like paying a high rent on top of the mortgage. When temperatures hit record highs and lows, energy bills and rates can skyrocket. Worse, blackouts have shown the grid to be less reliable than most assumed. By adding your own source of renewable wind energy, you hedge against the risk of rising electricity rates (the higher the rates, the greater your benefit).
Savings on your Electricity Bill
When you supply your own power, you no longer need to buy as much electricity from your utility. This means ongoing savings every month for 20 plus years.
Improved Local and National Security
In the big picture, many matters of national security revolve around our energy security, namely fossil fuels that are frequently imported from foreign nations. By reducing your need for fossil fuel power, you are reducing the nation's need, and thus taking one small step towards easing tensions around many matters of national security.

I read your comments you have unfortunatly relized very young that things suck and as shitty as the schools are in FL, in order for you and your friend to make a differance is to suck it up ,bite your lips and finish school. I grow up on the west coast of FL and it was worse in my day. And remember we can start this thing, but we count on you and your generation to finish this up. So remember when you are making your chooses in life that you children will be finishing what you start. So don't start anything not worth passing on
