A video of former Vice President Al Gore's speech addressing America's energy crisis has been posted on this site's front page under the posting, "A Convenient Truth".  It is approximately 30 mins. long.  My favorite part is at the 21(ish) minute mark.  At this point, Al Gore speaks to McCains proposal to encourage oil drilling off Ameirca's coasts.  

If you haven't had an opportunity to view Gore's speech to address America's energy crisis, and, btw, the impact of the world's current energy sources on climate change, when your time permits, the video is readily available on this site.  IMO, this is a video every Democrat shoud watch.  Heck, every American should watch this video!

Thank you, Jerome.

Today, former Vice President Al Gore laid out his plan to address America's energy crisis.  "The United States should be making all of its electricity with renewable and carbon-free energy in 10 years." Stressing the need for America to end its dependence on oil and coal, Gore laid out a plan for the country to "produce all of its electricity from renewable and carbon-free sources", a goal he compared to President Kennedy's challenge for the country to put a man on the moon.  Utilizing Sun, wind, and eco-friendly resources, America can contribute to a reduction of the "threat of climate change", relieve itself from the economic impact of "rising oil prices", and reduce the "transfer of wealth to oil producing countries".  "I don't remember a time in our country when so many things seemed to be going so wrong simultaneously....America's security, environmental and economic crises are all related", Al Gore said Thursday.
