    For your information, This man has done more good for his constituents than half the other members of the United States Senate. He has personally helped me in the past when I was being discriminated against and if you ever need his help he gladly do everything in his power to give you the help you needed. He is one of the very best and honorable members of our otherwise deplorable collection of Senators.

    I think if one or more of the senators have a vested interest in Oil or alterative energy, they should not be able to vote becouse they have a vested interest in one or the other and it will be the only way to get a real honest VOTE in Congress.
