"I support pipelines, expanded NG utilization, natural gas to liquid technology, coal gasification and all the R&D of cleaner oil extraction. Don't you? and the fact that no social issues are mentioned."

"Clean"coal and wind power were singled out.

Yes, wind farms.

"That is unfortunate, but they are not promoted either, as in the RAT and Libertarian platforms."

Doesn't really matter, though. They are dismantling the culture, so we must make plain that we intend to save it.

"What does your state platform look like?"

It's sort of generalized, possibly even vague:

We will continue to stand by our common-sense conservative values and principles, fighting for:

◦Lower taxes;

◦less and smaller government;

◦personal responsibility;

◦creating opportunities for anyone;

◦protection of life;

◦empowering families;

◦and defending freedom and liberty.

"Protection of life"...okay. I would be happier to see that expanded and abortion specifically mentioned. "Empowering families"? I don't know what that even means, and I hate that word.

It is pretty vague, but not repugnant.

Wind power is bogus, you need an equivalent conventional power plant for when the wind doesn’t blow (unless the site is always windy) They break down a lot.

“Clean coal” (gasification) makes natural gas and liquid fuels from coal as a feed-stock, instead of just burning it.

You, and buddies, should get on the platform committee.
