This fall hes hoping for another term for Obama, the best friend of private space, Musk says. Obama seems to care about inspiring events in the country, Musk says. Romney, on the other hand: Hes got that whole business-school thing going on, which Im not a huge fan of. Its hard to make a business case for inspiration. For now Musk has more immediate worries, like the performance of his rocket with the whole world watching. Isnt he worried hell suffer a Kim Jong-un-like fizzle? Nah, Musk says. Believe him. Elon has huge steel balls, his ex-wife notes on her blog. He truly does.
Mr Musk may be on the wrong side of the political isle but this is the precursor to a privatized space program. Burt Rutan, Richard Banson and Elon Musk are pioneers. Obama is just a politician patting himself on the back.
