You asked what I would do, were I president, not what I would do to get elected to the office.. ;0)

NO, no, no....Michael asked you what you would do, not me. :o)

But I do believe that ANWR should be drilled. The technology exists to minimize environmental impact (horizontal drilling), and past experience has clearly shown that endangered species actually flourish in the presence of man (we keep the predators away).

I've asked you two question of which the above doesn't answer.

Why is it that Exxon prefers to drill/pump oil in places like Iraq or Nigeria at high personnel risk when they've had a lease to develop a major oil and gas field in Alaska for some 40? years?

Follow up question, Mr. President. If there's a major oil and gas field in Alaska that has been sitting there for 40 years, why was your predecessor [and his party] so intent on developing oil fields in ANWR?
