I have been surfing around trying to find an idea for a blog story that would bring us another step closer to reaching our goal for Pledge Signers. I know that Mr. Pickens has met & discussed the Pickens Plan with both candidates in detail. In speeches, I keep picking up on terms that are the 'PICKENS PLAN' verbage from both candidates during interviews too. So I know they are getting the point of what we are demanding for from our next President, notice I didn't say "asking for from our nex…

This is what I wrote the Governor of Alabama. Momentum is building for a shift in energy production and usage that will change the way we live for the better. We do not have to live as servants of the Chinese (The borrower is server to the lender.) and as beggar to the Saudis (remember our President going hat-in-hand to the Saudis asking like the orphan Oliver, "Please Sir, I'd like some more.") I was embarassed.
Five Governors have signed the Pickens Pledge to work for energy independence. You…

Nancy Pelosi should look at this
Keith Olberman segment <= the second video in this post - and take the pledge for sure.
I hope Boone gets a Cabinet post in whatever administration gets in. Energy is the driving issue in our economy. If we get it right, everything falls right into place, including finance, peace and prosperity.
If you listen to Obama in that video segment which has to do with the "tire inflation" flapdoodle (for m…
