09.20.06 Energy Independence Speech - MoveOn Progressive V
Senator Obama delivered this speech to 700 students of Georgetown University today as part of the MoveOn Progressive Vision series.
"In the middle of the Cold War, we built a national highway system so we had a quick way to transport military equipment across the country. When we wanted to beat the Russians into space, we poured millions into a national education initiative that graduated thousands of new scientists and engineers. If we hope to strengthen our security and create hundreds of thousands of new jobs, we can offer no less of a commitment to energy independence."
