The Obama administration should consider making the pipeline build out part of the infrastructure spending where it fit's their goals. For once thing it probably won't cost a fortune - reducing the cost of debt to a reasonable value with loan guarantees would probably do the job (the US government simply would take advantage of their lower cost of funding and they even could make a decent margin). This prevents critical bottlenecks later, is efficient to keep construction jobs and pipeline manufacturing jobs and may help to improve he US energy grid.
