Politicans put on the spot with energy proposal

United States of America (Press Release) February 19, 2008 -- The following is an email Independent Presidential Candidate Bob Kinford sent to BOTH Texas Senators, West Texas State Representative, and West Texas State Senator, and just for grins and giggles, the Governor of California. Of course, his next post on his blog at http://rekinford.bravejournal.com/ will have their responses (or lack thereof). Strange, but this should have been thought about by someone like Senators Clinton or Obama, not a cowboy spending his time sitting on a horse and chasing cattle.

Why, with all of the technology available, has there not been a law passed REQUIRING a combination solar/wind electrical generation system on ALL new houses and apartment complexes? This would reduce our dependency on fossil fuels as well as prevent or reduce wide spread power outages from storms (or terrorists).

To further reduce our dependence on foreign oil, why not pass legislation requiring all new cars to run on straight alcohol (like NASCAR ). This could be easily accomplished if you would repeal the law against growing industrial hemp (which is not a drug). This would further reduce our dependence on oil as plastics can be made from the residual hemp after being distilled.

Sincerely,
Robert Kinford
