You're right, nobody seems to be going into how they will actually improve this country, just that they will create "change". I'd like some specifics as well but am cynical enough to know that we probably won't get any. Both Obama and McCain stink to put it bluntly, it's just a matter of who stinks less.

I'm pretty sure he has given a lot of information about his plans, and for you to say that he only states he will make things "better" without offering any real solutions is simply wrong.

Many months ago I watched the debates and did not hear any specifics within them that really clarified his plans. I'd love to find out more if you know of any instances that can be cited. If not, it's cool, but it proves my point.

If you somehow haven't gone to the obvious source for a fairly basic outline of things that maybe you can understand, what about other sources? Have you looked anything up at all or are you just magically expecting some sort of Obama Synopsis For Fixing America to fall into your lap?

its not that simple kid, if you want to dumb it down and exaggerate it that much, republicans are just protecting the interests of the richest and most powerful and fuck whoever else but its not that simple either. and dont get me wrong im pro-captialism but you probably dont have as well developed of an opinion as you think. the things you say are right out of the book of what republicans are supposed to say about the democratic party with no rhetoric behind it.

McCain's plan for energy isn't as strong as Obama's. Offshore drilling is not going to solve anything, nor even be a quick relief as we will see none of it for at least 5 years. To me, healthcare is a human right, Obama's healthcare plan will give more people a chance to have it. The war in Iraq needs to come to an end. Our economy is shit and our government is spending too much. The first place we should cut spending on is that war, which is what Obama wants to do and McCain wants to do the complete opposite. This country needs a leader. Obama is a natural leader. McCain, not so much.

finally the first real awnser thank you. i agree that with obama wants to make alterative enrgy but with out drilling their still wont be enought to help aid in the enrgy crisis and obama doesnt want nuclear enregy which i think is the safest and most effective. thank you again for giving me this info. it will help me make up my mind
Drilling offshore may not be the quickest fix but it's going to take just as much time to come up with a legit alternative energy source as it is to drill. The point of drilling is to increase competition which in turn lowers the cost. Healthcare is already provided to anyone that steps into a hospital. Ask any illegal immigrant. Someone please show me where our economy is crap. I'm still missing the facts here and would love for someone to show me how the economy is in the toilet. Our government is spending too much. Obama is not a natural leader. In fact a leader would not just back down and compromise with people (the Clintons) but would actually get them in line to follow him. I don't consider backing down to everyone leadership. A leader actually fights for what he/she believes in.

So then why don't we put all our funding into developing an adequate alternative energy solution instead of spending money on off shore drilling? That would create even more competition. Sure, people may receive healthcare in certain situations but they are then left giving all their paychecks to the hospital that treated them to pay the hospital for the treatment. They don't have health insurance. A good read on the economy can be found here http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article18787.htm . Inflation is at its highest rate in 17 years. If you don't think our economy is going down the shitter then you're delusional.
A leader of a country would compromise with people because a leader realizes that what is best for the country may not agree directly with their stance, but it is what would make the majority of the country satisfied. Obama has not backed down on any major issues which are the backbone of his campaign. I wouldn't even say he backed down to the Clintons, because if he did, he would have already named her VP.

You really need to do more research and learn about the world's oil supplies. Even with everything tapped, we have 30 years of oil left. The need for new energy isn't just because people are complaining about gas prices.

obama is open to off shore drilling, but anyone who regards it as a miracle solution hasn't looked at all the facts.
someone show you where our economy is crap? seriously? look at the housing market, the increase in the prices of consumer goods which shows the expanding of a recession beyond the price of gasoline, what happened with freddie and fannie. executives are predicting that a large bank is going to fail within the year. the flippant comment about illegal immigrants shows, again, you aren't looking at current affairs. hospitals are deporting people back to their home countries without any authority from the government, which is a problem in itself.
while i do wish obama hadn't kowtowed to the clintons so immediately, what he's doing is diplomatic. his race with hilary was almost evenly split down the middle, to not acknowledge her supporters or her campaign would be ludicrous. he isn't backing down to anyone, he is showing his respect and at the same time helping his campaign, which you know, is kind of the goal.
to the original creator of this thread, people who rely on their opinions to be fed to them drive me crazy. if you want more facts about obama, read his proposals, read mccains proposals. read over speech transcripts, news articles, and interviews (particularly, i feel everyone should read, if they didnt watch, the saddleback civil forum.) just think of what would happen if people actually kept up on the news, haha.

hillary clinton is not a leader. she is a politician. she plays the game well and uses her husband's status as an asset. obama is already proven to be the real leader to actually make compromises for the sake of his party's campaign if you just want to look at the political part of it, not even paying attention to the part where the issues and decisions come in. i honestly think most of what hillary does is geared behind making herself look good and not doing what she believes is right.

the latest estimates on proven oil reserves has us set for somewhere around 65 years. thats PROVEN reserves, that doesnt include probable and possible reserves. thats 65 years of oil available with current technology. eventually though obviously we will have to move away from oil, but lets not deflect the real issue here. when people talk about the current energy crisis, they aren't referring to a possible shortage 60 years down the road.

there is no single solution, but there are plenty of things that can be done right now to alleviate our dependence on oil to a great degree.
setting up wind, hydro, and solar power where it makes sense to do so, using more efficient appliances, properly weatherizing houses, implementing more advanced coal technologies, and using hybrid cars or just not driving a suv/truck would all make a significant impact on oil consumption.
Cold Fusion is a interesting alternative energy

Hmm, I read that back when it was first put in place that it saved 178,000 barrels a day. It would save more today. But I suppose your last point was a good one, because I don't think too many people would abide by it.

On Long Island the speed limit is 55 but the cops won't pull you over unless you're going over 70. It's pretty much fruitless to have the speed limit set at 55 since literally nobody abides by it.

So, by your own words, we have 65 years years of reserve oil left. Then when should we start looking and investing in alternative energy sources, if it will take "40, 50+" years to make it a reliable source?

1. we have an estimated 65 years of proven resources left. that means oil that we're 80-90% confident can be recovered by current technology. anything less than that is unproven, but still probable, making 65 years the low end of the estimate.
A. oil production and recovery technology is constantly improving.
B. alternative energy IS being invested in, researched, and improved upon, and i never said we shouldn't consider these. but people are looking for relief from the *current* energy crisis (high oil prices), and alternative energy will not provide any short-term relief, which people are looking for and we were discussing. the issue was not future oil depletion, so i'm not sure why you changed the subject to that.
2. how do they calculate 65 years?
you take current estimates of proved oil reserves. http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/international/reserves.html
divide by oil production rates
you get your estimated reserve life
3. how do they arrive at these proven oil reserve estimates?
here's a long read, maybe you should have someone read it for you.
There are a number of different methods of calculating oil reserves. These methods can be grouped into three general categories: volumetric, material balance, and production performance. Each method has it's advantages and drawbacks.
Volumetric Method
Volumetric methods attempt to determine the amount of oil-in-place by using the size of the reservoir as well as the physical properties of it's rocks and fluids. Then a recovery factor is assumed, using assumptions from fields with similar characteristics. OIP is multiplied by the recovery factor to arrive at a reserve number. The method is most useful early in the life of the reservoir, before significant production has occured.
The first step is to calculate the stock tank oil, or oil in place. This calculation is made using the volume of rock containing oil (Bulk Rock Volume, in the USA this is usually in acre-feet), percentage porosity of the rock in the reservoir, percentage water content of that porosity, and the amount of shrinkage that the oil undergoes when brought to the earth's surface.
The recovery factor is the percentage of the oil in place that can be produced from the reservoir. The recovery factor depends on the viscosity of the oil (resistance of the oil to flow), the permeability of the reservoir (ability of oil to flow through the pores in the reservoir rock to the well), and the resevoir drive(what creates and maintain pressure in the field besides pumps).
During the primary recovery stage, reservoir drive comes from a number of natural mechanisms. These include: natural water displacing oil upward into the well, expansion of the natural gas at the top of the reservoir, expansion of gas initially dissolved in the crude oil, and gravity drainage resulting from the movement of oil within the reservoir from the upper to the lower parts where the wells are located. Recovery factor during the primary recovery stage is typically 5-15%.
After natural reservoir drive diminishes, secondary recovery methods are applied. They rely on the supply of external energy into the reservoir in the form of injecting fluids to increase reservoir pressure, hence replacing or increasing the natural reservoir drive with an artificial drive. Typically this is done by injecting water in the reservoir using a number of injection wells. Typical recovery factor from water-flood operations is about 30%, depending on the properties of oil and the characteristics of the reservoir rock. On average, the recovery factor after primary and secondary oil recovery operations is between 30 and 50%.
After this stage, tertiary or enhanced oil recovery techniques may be applied. These refer to to a number of operations that are typically done towards the end of life of an oilfield, to maintain oil production and produce an additional 5-15% original OIP. Examples include injection of CO2, nitrogen, or steam to improve oil flow.
Materials Balance Method
The materials balance method for an oil field uses an equation that relates the volume of oil, water and gas that has been produced from a reservoir, and the change in reservoir pressure, to calculate the remaining oil. It assumes that as fluids from the reservoir are produced, there will be a change in the reservoir pressure that depends on the remaining volume of oil and gas. The method requires extensive pressure-volume-temperature analysis and an accurate pressure history of the field. It requires some production to occur (typically 5% to 10% of ultimate recovery), unless reliable pressure history can be used from a field with similar rock and fluid characteristics.
Production Decline Curve Method
The decline curve method uses production data to fit a decline curve and estimate future oil production. The three most common forms of decline curves are exponential, hyperbolic, and harmonic. It is assumed that the production will decline on a reasonably smooth curve, and so allowances must be made for wells shut in and production restrictions. The curve can be expressed mathematically or plotted on a graph to estimate future production. It has the advantage of (implicitly) including all reservoir characteristics. It requires a sufficient history to establish a statistically significant trend, ideally when production is not curtailed by regulatory or other artificial conditions.
I wouldn't really classify that as 'guessing' but if you're going to challenge my '65 years' comment which is based off of actual industry information, i'm a little surprised you let giggs '30 years' estimate slide so easily. he has yet to back it up. with anything.
so keep saying im comical and entertaining, when you're the clown who hasn't provided anything of substance or one shred of evidence to back up your side of the argument.

You pointed out the difficulty of establishing a new alternative energy. I simply was trying to question what's more important, trying to discover more oil that's inevitably going to get more scarce and more unreasonable for mass use or trying to establish a new energy source that will get us by. Cold Fusion being one of them.

believe me, im all for it and i understand that obviously eventually we will have to switch. my point is that people are looking for help now, people arent voting for mccain or obama with the idea that 30 years down the road the oil situation might get better. they're looking for relief relatively soon, and those saying alternative energy will provide that relief simply haven't thought things out completely. but yes obviously alternative energy needs perfected for the future.

so why is there a 7% difference between the industry-based quantities at year-end 2005? and why does the quantity jump 12% in by january 1, 2007? (i'm looking at the world total supplies at the bottom) if it's due to finding oil in new locales, then what's to say oil could last 100 years if we found supplies elsewhere? if you had read my initial thought on it, you'd see i didn't complete write off the measures behind it- although, if the numbers are changing from year to year based on estimation, how can you come up with a concrete answer as to how long oil supplies will last?
to make that concise, if the current estimates are everchanging, how is it anything more than guessing, albeit educated or not?
also, and this goes for anyone, can anyone find the percentage of U.S. domestic (or better yet, world) consumption that can be solely attributed to automobile usage? i can't find that anywhere. if it's not a restrictively high proportion (90%+) wouldn't it make sense to develop alternative energies to defer other oil uses and save what we have for automobile usage? all things considered, you can't switch out hundreds of millions of engines overnight, and it'd be asking a lot of the american public to shell out for hybrids. i'm just wondering how much oil/gas consumption can be solely attributed to driving. i guess if there was a way to separate consumer driving from industry driving (truckers, etc) that'd help too.

i really am not sure why the difference in the two year's totals. maybe more oil fields discovered, maybe some nations being more forthcoming with their totals, some countries view these stats as state secrets and refuse to submit data....i really don't know why its changed.
but i do know we have more than '30 years worth with everything tapped'.
there may be a certain margin of error, but its not a blindly optimistic guess that we have at least 65 years worth left.

fair enough. i just find it hard to accept using things like "65 years" as a way to defer alternative energy investing, when the basis for it comes from everchanging estimations. that's all. i don't disagree with more drilling, but it shouldn't be the emphasis (it should be just short of an afterthought, i think). in my mind, a short-sighted solution won't fix the longer energy problem the world has created. regardless of the timing, the world will run out of oil - that's roughly indisputable. i don't see any legitimate reason why we should delay countering the effects of that. then again, i've always maintained that we'll have alternative energies when it's massively profitable for exxon/etc to change course.

there is no single solution, but there are plenty of things that can be done right now to alleviate our dependence on oil to a great degree.
setting up wind, hydro, and solar power where it makes sense to do so, using more efficient appliances, properly weatherizing houses, implementing more advanced coal technologies, and using hybrid cars or just not driving a suv/truck would all make a significant impact on oil consumption.
but how significant of an impact, taking driving out of the equation? i can't find a concrete answer for this anywhere.
also, and this goes for anyone, can anyone find the percentage of U.S. domestic (or better yet, world) consumption that can be solely attributed to automobile usage?
if anything using oil/gas (that aren't vehicles) could be converted to alternative energies, how much would that alleviate the solution? i think if someone stumbles onto that answer, it could shift the whole debate. but damn me if i can find it.

ENERGY STAR qualified appliances incorporate advanced technologies that use 10–50% less energy and water than standard models.......water heaters, furnaces, and clothes dryers aren't a part of the energy star program, but the good ones will save you at least a hundred bucks a year on gas.
alternative energy even at this point could take care of at least 10% of our energy needs.
i know a properly weatherized house can save you hundreds of dollars in gas a year.....at least it can in alaska.
coal is a pretty clean and efficient energy source with the advances in technology we've seen.....i don't have any numbers handy, but it shouldn't be hard to find info on it.

Hey, ya should have done this earlier and maybe I wouldn't have said all those things about you.
Furthermore, the reason I said 30 is because I also have read estimates that say its 30 years left, But, the truth is, our estimates are wrong, period. No one knows how much oil there is left.

http://www.lifeaftertheoilcrash.net/
Furthermore, saying that "alternative energy doesn't solve anything today" is an extremely narrow way of looking at the situation:
All these companies investing in trying to find alt energy is only going to create jobs and stimulate economic growth. This right here has all the links to back that up: http://www.altenergystocks.com/
So continue to keep your head in the sand, and continue to think off-shore drilling will help things. The rest of society will pass you by.

The President doesn't make decisions based on information that he alone has. There will be advisors and cabinet members who have more than enough knowledge and "experience" to give Obama the information he needs.

I think that argument is overused and somewhat irrelevant. He hasn't been in office as long as McCain, but what does it matter? We live in a world that is constantly changing. Information is coming in all the time from countless sources. The President doesn't make decisions based on information that he alone has. There will be advisors and cabinet members who have more than enough knowledge and "experience" to give Obama the information he needs.
John McCain was in a POW camp. That means nothing to me. He may have been in office longer, but his voting record, his attitude, and his statements are things that make me want to not have him become President.
Obama seems like he will be a great decision maker. McCain does not.
The "experience" argument doesn't hold a lot of weight, in my opinion.
Wonderfully said.

Sarcasim apprecitated.. Ha.. But on a side note... earlier when we were talking about the health care/ people with their hands out / socialism thing .. i just want to let you know why i view it the way i do.....
A little backround information.... My dad owns a Small grocery store in a very poor part of town. Every day i see people walking in that i know for a fact are very capable of working, but they dont. I could point out at least 200 people that i know from the store who get their government checks once or twice a month and are unemployed and very lazy. I mean it is really rediculous, honestly you probably think im full of shit, but dude these guys are pathetic. They talk about how they never have any money, and if you say to them, " why dont you just go and get a job." They think you are kidding. It is the way they were raised so they think its okay to milk the government and do absolutley nothing for their country during their life times. These same people are the ones who make us pay for their emergency room bills. And you said that no matter what their is a bill. I beg to dissagree with you on that, these people have no money, the bill goes to the government or state or whatever and guess who pays for it, you and me, the taxpayers.
Now i know there are alot of cases out there where bad things have happened to people and families and they really need it. But it is because of the lazy bastards that milk the system that it can not work. Once again this is not a utopia. What is the harm in actually rewarding someone for working hard their entire life. Is it right for them to get taxed to death because a ton of people just dont want to work. If you want something you have to work hard to achieve it. It shouldnt just be givin to you.

A human right. Where are you coming up with this stuff. We have the rights to these and these only these, Life, Liberty, Property and pursuit of happiness. According to our founding fathers at least. We are not born with the right to go to disneyland, or starbucks. We are not born with the right to kidney dialysis, or chemotherapy. All legit rights have the same thing in common, they are rights to action, not to rewards from other people. The American rights impose no obligations on other people, just the negative obligation to leave you alone. This way it guarantees you the chance to "WORK" for what you want. Not to be given it without effort by somebody else.
Politicians say that you are entitled to something simply because it exists and you want or need it. You are entitled to be given it by the government. Where does the government get it from? What does the government have to do to private citizens? To their individual rights? To their REAL rights, in order to carry out the promise of showering free services on the people?

You say all this stuff about people getting money from the government and just not doing anything with their lives or getting jobs, but your basing it all off assumptions, maybe some people are gettin unemployment right now because they are going through struggles in life you have no fucking idea about. The government issues unemployment checks from others taxes because we are SUPPOSED to be a united country, a country that is here for each other when we are in need of others help. Sure some people might take advantage of it, and im sure those that do will not go very far with the 200 dollars they get every 2 weeks. But the way you put it you make it sound like anyone that does not have a job and collects unemployment is just a lackadaiscal asshole taking everyone elses tax money, which is just not the case. Try thinkin outside of your own mind buddy.

So we are giving charity now? Don't abolish charity by calling it something else. If a person is getting health care for NOTHING, simply because he is breathing, he is still getting charity, whether or not some call it a "right." To call it a Right when the recipient did not EARN it is merely to compound the evil. It is charity still, though now extorted by criminal tactics of force, while hiding under a dishonest name.
As with any good or service that is provided by men, if you try to make its possession by all a right, you basically enslave the providers of the service, wreck the service, and end up depriving the very consumers you are supposed to be helping. To call "medical care" a right will enslave the doctors and destroy the quality of medical care in this country, as socialized medicine has done around the world, wherever it has been tried.

I shared your same opinion about the welfare issue growing up because Cubans are republican and that's all I heard. Unfortunatly, it is a selfish and closed-minded opinion. This probably won't make sense to you, but sometimes people need to be on welfare for a little while so they can get their lives back on track and be successful. Part of the responsibility of being a Democratic president is being able to help those people get job's or job training while they finally have the money to put their kids in daycare and feed them regularly. Bill Clinton did an amazing job of getting many people jobs and off of welfare when he was resident, and that was one of my biggest reasons for voting for Hillary Clinton had she been nominated. Now whether Obama will be as good is certainly questionable, it is apparent that he will do alot more good that someone like McCain.

Our country is here to protect us, not pay for every damn part of our lives. Once again socialism does not work people, what will it take for you to understand this?
And those that have jobs and can't afford health care? What should they do?
"Our country is here to protect us ..." just not from things like viruses, illnesses, accidents, diseases, infections, or anything medically related. That's how your sentence should really read.
Virtually all of Europe has publicly sponsored and regulated health care - it works. The US is the only (http://www.iom.edu/?id=17848) wealthy, industrialized nation to not offer it.
Most of the uninsured (>80% (http://www.iom.edu/Object.File/Master/17/740/Fact%20sheet%201%20%20universal.pdf )) are from working families. Not "the lazy." But don't let facts get in your way.

Ok as far as universal health care goes. If you look at the 10 best Health Care systems in the world they are all European countries that are single payer systems. They understand that health care is a basic human right. Universal care does not enslave the provider, there is a very simple fix to keep this from happening. You pay doctors based on merit, not a set salary. The better care they provide the more money they make, which is an incentive to provide quality care to eveyone.

Yeah, because we've done such a great job of establishing a democracy in Iraq, as well as preventing terrorist attacks on American soil the past 10 years.
Not to mention all of our troops are properly equipped and receiving the highest care possible.
