I almost forgot, how do we stretch 8 million barrels of domestic oil to cover 20 million barrels of current use? And how much will gas cost now that we won't buy oil from those pesky foreigners?

[William Terrell]

Why do you limit it to 8 million barrels? Does that incorporate undrilled regions off our coasts, ANWAR and oil shale?

America made strong economically by internal trade cannot be held hostage. America dependent on foreign producers can be led around with a ring in its nose.

Of course, when those who profit from the trade and production situation, and whose noses have been numbed by visions of increase, feel the pressure on the ring, it will be too late.
