Boone here,

Please take a minute or two and click here to check out Barack Obama’s transition website. He’s asking people to tell him what they think. It’s a perfect opportunity for each one of us, including me, to tell him and his people about our plan and why we believe it’s important to reduce our dependence on foreign oil.

Two times during the campaign, President-elect Obama said, “for the sake of our economy, our security, and the future of our planet, I will set a clear goal as president: In 10 years, we will finally end our dependence on oil from the Middle East. We will do this. Washington has been talking about our oil addiction for the last 30 years.”

He gets it! He knows what the problem is. Now we just have to make sure his people know that the Pickens Plan is the answer.

I’m headed to the ranch for Thanksgiving with my family — and hopefully a couple days of rest. But when I get back, we’ll roll up our sleeves and get back to business.

In the meantime, have a great week and know that I’m grateful for all you’ve done, and that our country is going to be a better place because of the work we’re doing together.

-Boone
