At Last, A Plan-Apollo Alliance
While perusing a blog I came across this site:
http://www.apolloalliance.org/strategy_center/
snip.
In 1961, President John F. Kennedy inspired Americans to pursue a goal that seemed beyond our reach: to land a man on the moon within the decade. Eight years later, Apollo 11 commander Neil Armstrong set foot on the lunar surface – proof we can succeed when we apply our expertise, innovation and can-do spirit to a single national endeavor.

Now America has an Apollo Project for the 21st century. Our challenge is to achieve energy independence in one generation. This new Apollo Project, a ten-point plan for energy independence, will bring our country together to rethink and reshape our energy future, to create a stronger economy, a safer world and cleaner environment. The plan calls for diversifing our energy sources, making America less dependent on imported oil and making energy less polluting. It will invest in new technology and expand markets for American durable goods. And, it will increase construction of high performance energy efficient buildings and drive new spending on transportation and public infrastructure.

This is an idea that we all can get behind, in fact the upcoming election is the ideal foil to market this idea.
We all know that BFEE is owned by the energy suppliers lock stock aand barrel. This is the kind of thing that can unite people accross this great land.
