I just watched on C-SPAN Montana Governor Brian Schweizer's address to the National Press Club on October 13, 2006. He is my kind of guy.
He is bright , articulate and effusive when it comes to energy independence for the U.S. Brian has done his homework and the math behind what it will take for the U.S. to become independent of Middle East oil. Beyond that, he understands the science and technology that underlies our energy portfolio
If you haven't seen or listened to him speak, you are missing one of the lights of the current generation of Democrats. He has lived all around the world and speaks some Arabic. At the same time he owns a ranch in Whitefish and speaks common sense unlike nearly all politicians who have spent time in Washington.
Unfortunately, he is unwilling to run for President in 2008. If he ran, he'd have my vote in a minute. If you have the opportunity, listen to him speak. He grabbed me with his common sense combined with brilliance.
