Governor Vilsack Says Energy Independence Key in his Run for President
-- Katie -- 12/01/2006
Yesterday, Iowa Governor Tom Vilsack became the latest candidate in the 2008 race for the White House. Vilsack focused on the issues of energy security and global warming in his announcement, stating "Energy security will revitalize the world. America energy security will allow us to re-claim moral leadership in the discussion of Global Climate Change."
Energy played a big role in the 2006 elections and it's carrying over into the 2008 presidential campaign . Although Governor Vilsack is the first announced candidate to discuss global warming, several candidates who are considering running are also speaking out about energy independence. LCV looks forward to facilitating the candidates's debate on global warming--and we'll be closely follwing other announcements. To watch Gov. Vilsack talking about energy and global warming on CNBC, click here.
