Assuming Romney gets the nomination, he could go a long way to repair the splits in the Republican/Conservative alliance by choosing Sarah Palin as VP and giving her the freedom to campaign as she sees fit.

If elected, put her in charge of US energy independence, a program with the highest priority for the next decade.

Or, at least, to nominate her for a high cabinet position.

My preference is VP, or merge the Depts of Energy, Interior and EPA into one unit and put Sarah in charge of that.

@ Post 11

Energy should be a top priority for the next decade and Palin could make it happen. However, that assumes we have a congress that supports energy independence and a public that demands it.

Energy is not simply supply vs demand. The value of energy is measured in dollars and we are destroying the value of the dollar with our reckless spending/borrowing. Any gains in energy output will be eroded by a weakened dollar.

Revenues to the government will improve and it would promote economic growth so we should do it. However, it won’t fix our fundamental problems or change the inevitable outcome. Based on current and past behavior, we will spend the gains and still borrow more.

Again, tell me where I am wrong.
