Obama is right on the Alaskan natural gas pipeline


Reasons to agree:
  1. In a speech given in Lansing, Michigan, Senator Obama called for the completion of the Alaska natural gas pipeline, stating, “Over the next five years, we should also lease more of the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska for oil and gas production. And we should also tap more of our substantial natural gas reserves and work with the Canadian government to finally build the Alaska natural gas pipeline, delivering clean natural gas and creating good jobs in the process.“ 
  2. Natural Gas is cleaner than coal.
Probable interest (or motive) of those who agree:
  1. Republican Party Affiliation (40%)
  2. They agree with the argument, outside of any interest or alterior motivation (30%)
  3. Racism (5%)
  4. Political laziness & issue crossover.
  5. Money for those living in Alaska, or in the Energy market.
  6. The desire for lower cost natural gas (more supply)
Probable interest (or motive)  of those who disagree:
  1. They agree with the argument, outside of any interest or alterior motivation (30%)
  2. Democratic party groupism (40%)
  3. Liberal guilt.
  4. Political laziness & issue crossover.
  5. Money. The desire to sell products to people in Cuba.
  6. The desire to see higher prices, so people use forced to think more about their energy decisions.
