Good Morning. Thank you for joinin PP and offering to help, too.
If we can get Washington to buy into this, there will be many changes for our economy AND our environment, as well as our national security and pride. I look forward to the day when we all benefit by being able to participate as consumers of affordable renewables.
First things first. We need to build support for this historical effort to monumental levels - until there will be no place for our leaders to hide. It will be political suicide for them not to get this done! THEN, WE will have made the difference. If we do not take advantage of this moment in history we get what we deserve. Our forefathers had to do so much to fight for their future, this is so much easier, but no less critical.
WE CAN DO THIS. THERE IS NO INFLUENCE WITHOUT NUMBERS..
Please, Timothy, download a petition or two, fill it in and fax it in! (there is a live link at the bottom of Tom Bailey's message, below) If you find "like thinkers" along the way, ask them to do the same. One at a time, we can build this, until the paradigm of thought on energy shifts in this country and we accept nothing less than wholesale change away from foreign oil and toward self sufficiency! You do not need to get folks to sign it in person. One of the girls who collects support for our group does it all through friends on the phone. A simple phone call to ask if she can sign them up as supporters of the plan to get us off foreign oil and onto American solutions. She got more than 40 in just a few hours.
Best to you!
Kim
Please let me know how it goes. I love to hear stories, anecdotes, successes. THANKS.
We are a voluntary community of individuals who are placing our combined support behind T. Boone Pickens and his efforts to send our government a clear (heard) message that we must reduce our nation’s dependence on foreign oil through the use of all domestic energy alternatives. This site is a place to interact with fellow Pickens Plan supporters, keep up with events and opportunities to help get more involvement.
For those of you that have already jumped in and have made contact with your local leader- thanks.
Please, I ask the first sites you visit to get accurate info and articles to see pretty much what the plan is about and where the plan stands, and please come back to these sites often as changes take place regularily. Some are long, please; take the time to get all the details.
On the home page, click on About The Plan ~ Boone Cam ~ Blog
Our future is focus 1- at this point in time! If not now, When? If not you, WHO?
~~~~~~to quote, Earl Scharff, from RI,~~~~~~~
~~~~~"FOR INFLUENCE, YOU NEED NUMBERS!"~~~~~
Mr. Obama has voiced that eliminating the dependence of foreign oil is a top priority.

If you would rather wait on a leader role, that’s ok we need helpers. An organization cannot be all chiefs.
There is a group for almost everything. The Forums/discussions on this site are many and you’ll probably find something that interests or concerns you. Some are very long and were started months ago. For the ones that concern you, please keep in mind, events are remembered and relayed differently by those commenting, which as we all too well know equals at least three sides to the event.
After you have read the sites I mentioned, if you need anything else to help you, while you help the push, please stop by. I am proud to put my efforts towards this cause.
This is an easy first task I ask of you-
~~~~~~~PLEASE TAKE A PETITION TO WORK TODAY!~~~~~~
I am asking everyone to please take petitions to school or work or wherever you are going today! Everyone wants to get off of foreign oil; we just need to gather their names. WE CAN DO THIS, with everyone’s help. [Click here] for the Petition, then copy or print 4 or 5 and ask everyone to help, better everyone's future.
Again, Welcome; Tom- Welcome wagon crew!
