President-elect Obama Announces Environment and Energy Team

[tobias444]

Even trough it was an excellent speech, I noticed that vice president-elect seemed a bit angry... why? Correct me if I´m wrong please.

[sebreathnach]

Why does one get that 'blah, blah, blah' feeling again? Obama believes that he is there 'to maintain the strongest military on the planet.' Given his appointments, an increase in ground forces by 100,000 and $850 billion being spent annually to the miliatry, Sarah Pallin can only become more attractive...Change????

[chickenbreaker]

There is no law of physics that denies the possibility to gain a 100% energy supply with renewable energies. The only impediment to achieve this goal quickly is the huge amount of money made by the conventional players in coal, gas and nuclear and their influence in politcs.

I wish you all good luck for this courageous step into the right direction. It's important for the whole world.

[PhotonDrive]

HoHoHo we good 'ol mountain boys (Gore & Clinton) can sure dig the SCIENCE of BOOT-LEG WHISKEY! & those little critters that MAKE CORN INTO ALCOHOL, our good new buddy Steven can COOK UP IN THE LAB! Yeah, I'm a "loose cannon" who don't sign onto the "4-year plan"! THERE IS NO TIME! The Chinese & Japan have already had secret talks putting Mag/Gen-Mg/Drive Fuel-Less motorless tech into IMMEDIATE PRODUCTION! So cut the old Carter-era crap, because once you're gone, you won't come BACK!

[jdubeau007]

The content is good, but the speech is a little rough.

Nice quote, Dr. Chu.

[AaronEins3]

not bad, not bad at all.

[NecipPerver]

Sounds like a great leader so far, a scientific and logical approach rather than the old cowboys of old. Not a warmonger great!

[theVAGINAtheist]

BOO

[overkill0lethal]

How will Obama's administration be "transparent", as he claims. When he surrounds himself with the same types that surrounded pres. Bush? Wasn't Bush and his people probably the most secretive presidential officials in US history?

[maninlight]

Within every person is innovation.

With the chance to participate in science and technology we can change the world.

Government online interactive innovation sites need to be created that anyone can participate in.

These new virtual labs would help with freedom of science and the innovation of the common people.

Virtual labs should simulate real conditions, and use simulated cutting edge technology.

United We Stand

Together we can blaze a trail into a future singularity.

Great environment and energy team. Can't get any better than that.

[spell024]

Can't wait to see the team in action! I really like where these ideas are going.

[everittjames]

How do we get it done?

We're organizing behind the Pickens Plan now to ensure our voices will be heard by the next administration.

Together we can raise a call for change and set a new course for America's energy future in the first hundred days of the new presidency — breaking the hammerlock of foreign oil and building a new domestic energy future for America with a focus on sustainability.

You can start changing America's future today by supporting the Pickens Plan. Join now.

[samhamels]

I sure hope that America will finally start taking one of the most serious problems ever, seriously

global climate destabilization

[pakistanfatima]

ami realy the first 1 to comment!!!!!

[kenfolk3]

For our vision of Change to occur the right question must be asked: What will take us to our tomorrow? The answer is our Leaders must fight for what's right every day without fail, insisting we fight with them every step of the way. The price of freedom is Eternal vigilance.

[lamouchemorte]

It feels so great to know that we again have intelligent leaders in the United States to whom altruism is not a foreign word.

[lorelaipoulain]

wow - amazing quality!

[TheEllipsis]

I'm curious if this means that the United States may reconsider its previous stance on the Kyoto Protocol in the near future.

[BarackObama2008USA]

I think Barack Obama,woluld be a great American president.He is the best.

[2102apples]

Could Obama make a better energy/environment team? Oh, the wonderful years to come.

[Dw3ut]

Science!

[xsleef]

Why are govts so busy telling people how to live,we can live just fine without aggressive govts.Govts role is to protect the country,not protect the whole world,why do we need to borrow money from a country to protect that country?Why cant the govt be the bank and gives low interest loans,so the govt collects interest instead of private banks.International problems is not our problem until that problems comes to our land.We need smaller govt and strict finacial restrictions on the over borrowing

[PizzaguylolXD]

Anyone catch he accidentally said President Gore at the end? Ah well. Good video.

[Impulse622]

wow. no comments?

[The007Kidd]

The date is incorrect. The press conference was held on Monday, December 15th.

[maxhaddrall]

Hopefully this will be a start to a greener future

[gurghet]

[mouemusic]

This man is not playing around.

I love it.

[mhamza19]

[misterlawler]

I am so excited for the future! America, we are going to rock!

[movieman22685845]

we have a good president

[adjohnson916]

Thanks to the Obama camp for some excellent appointments, especially Secretary of Energy Dr. Chu. I imagine this will be a watershed administration on the energy and environmental fronts. This should all pan out very well for America's future.

[dannyknapp]

great job Mr. President elect !! Now, when you put wind and solar farms in our rural counties I hope it benefits our rural citizens. Please don't take our land resources for the benefit of urban citizens at the expense of rural citizens. We need your help out here in rural route three too ! that's why we voted for you !!

[mrtdot]

At least no one threw a shoe.

[thisDUDE]

Better in HD.

[GoddnRunn]

President Gore?

[mrdumpit]

Where is the questions and answer part that is at the end ? What a shame the whole story is NOT here for us to hear ALL of it with the very important question and answer part left out.

[57waldo57]

umm my comment went away?

[piyushsoniccc]

I think Biden chose them

[MegrisVernin]

Team sounds good ^_^

[purdyflywhteguy]

first!

[Ottee2]

Sounds good. Let's do it.

[Corporations8MyBaby]

With respect, I believe you mean December 15. - I'm so proud of the choice of Dr. Steven Chu. What an inspired pick! An improved public infrastructure may cost big corporations a bit of profit... but it it will make this nation better for everyone ... and for generations to come. You can count on my hard work & enthusiastic contributions.

[muhammadsattaur]

YEAHHH

[BrookerStooker]

Looking forward to see the change on energy policy <3

But I hope it's not too radical cuz new things are always expensive and not reliable <3

[xaos6]

Well spoken, look forward to seeing some of these changes

[RatDreams]

I am still excited the President has a YouTube channel. You people rock.

[mchtcherbakov]

ROFFLES, WATCH AT THE END, WITH BIDEN, RIGHT AT THE END, FRUEDIAN SLIP... LOL PRESIDENT GORE, and btw, FIRST!!!

[1NoahOne]

Yay, finally a president picking real intelligent people for his cabinet, not POLITICIANS

[EnviroMonster]

Wow!

[Painful16]

Date in "More Info" is incorrect, its the 15th

=D

[DKfansown]

december 16? is this video from the future?

[MichaelAwesome]

wooo

[gennytte]

It's sad that having an administration that makes decisions based on facts is a novel concept. That's how it always should have been. I'm glad we have this rationality now, but slap my forehead in frustration that we haven't all along.

[skarefamena]

Steve Chu is a brilliant choice for Energy Secretary. Go-bama!

[pa6xylly]

a physicist as the secretary of energy?! incredible...the standard has alwasy been to tap other politicians for all cabinet posts.

it's funny...obama, unlike past presidents with cronies to reward from their gubernatorial days, has no such alliances to compromise his decision-making here.

no hacks, no idealogues, no business partners...the man picks indisputable subject-matter experts, many of them full-blown academics.

intellectualism as the means to postpartisanship.

GObama!

[ademeyer]

The Saints are coming! the Saints are coming! FINALLY competent leadership at the top.

[mlee92907]

hey i love the vid (nd obama lmao)

but u made a mistake in the info (i think) because u said "On December 16 in Chicago," but u put the vid up on the 15th so... ya

[pigu0606]

a scientist at the helm... incredible breakthrough!

[tktru]

"President Gore", eh Mr. Vice President-elect?

[crimsonninja6995]

It almost doesn't feel right to have people put into government positions by their merits

[ItsFizikal]

No taxation without representation.

[harmanmalhi93]

he said global warming!

finally a president who will admit it!

[aviva08]

"We will make decisions based on facts."

When was the last time you heard that from a president?

[metaroc]

hydrogen is the way to go...

[Azodiac]

Thanks for posting! I finally look forward to January win President Obama takes the oath of office! May God bless the President and the Unite States of America. We are prayign that President Obama has the wisdom and patients to make the right decisions in these troubling economic times!

[dakrus]

Who's PResident Gore?

[firedog501]

RonPaul

[firedog501]

1st?!

Midget?!

Corruption?!

[Qu4nIam]

Hopefully Obama can change the MESS we are all in.

[justinfrost]

"On December 16 in Chicago . . ."?

[mudkipNDS]

Every day closer to Obama's inauguration feels like an eternity closer to the goal! >.0

[Gamenoobic]

nice1

[BabybooR33]

[n8iveidiot13]
