The Nation needs to take a new approach to our energy problems.

We keep spending money and sending it overseas when we should be developing American energy.

We need to forge a whole new energy and American Dream.

I think America understands that energy security is a very important part of our national security. But if we are going to address energy security in a meaningful way going forward, we need to do it in a new manner. We cannot just be doing the same old thing.

The problem is not that America does not have energy. The problem is that our government - alone among the governments of the world - will not allow its own people to recover the energy that they possess.

We must develop energy independence; we must Make It In America.

Let's stop big government energy mandates like cap-and-trade, and instead trust the American innovator to make us energy independent.

Americans increasingly understand that clean energy is more than just an environmental issue. It is crucial to reducing our dangerous dependence on foreign countries.

The more energy-efficient we become as a nation, the less we need to develop additional energy sources.

Let's make sure we're doing what we can in our own backyard to gain our energy independence and to create American jobs with American energy.
