Vision for Energy and Infrastructure

We are seeking leaders who will empower American independence, prosperity and security through our energy and infrastructure policies. We want those who will boost our domestic energy supply to lower costs, avoid resource wars, and power technologies like artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and Bitcoin. We also want those who will modernize our infrastructure through technological innovations and accountable, cost-effective spending. See more Vision below. New submissions are currently paused.


Energy independence is the centerpiece of national security in the 21st century. From safe and responsible drilling and fracking to modular third generation nuclear to renewable energy stored and delivered long-distance via high capacity lines, American energy is about to get a boost. This surge in domestic supply will lower costs of housing, consumer goods, and utilities. It will insulate us from the need to fight dangerous and inflationary resource wars. And it will power our dominance as the global leaders in artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and Bitcoin. To support the resulting economic boom, our national infrastructure must be overhauled. From our highway and rail systems to the electrical grid, infrastructure is the backbone of our economy and our daily lives. We don’t notice it when it’s working well, but it can knock us flat when it’s broken.

The Biden/Harris Administration passed a catastrophically inflationary infrastructure bill that has achieved virtually nothing, except sending our debt soaring and raising prices for everyday Americans. President Trump will audit all infrastructure allocations and pending projects, relying on Elon Musk’s government efficiency taskforce to track every last taxpayer dollar and deliver real-world results. Together, they will leverage cutting-edge technology and innovation to leapfrog outdated approaches and empower America to win the century ahead.

What’s possible to reinvigorate Teslas Wardencliffe Tower concept with LOCAL Towers providing FREE ELECTRICITY for everyone!

Simple. Sustainable. Free Electricity.

Further, many men have developed a car engine that runs on WATER.
How might this water powered technology be mass produced for the population to enjoy?
Where else might this water technology be applied? Semi Trucks? In ANY application that utilizes a motor?

What is possible to make Jacques Frescos Venus Project a reality? How might his infrastructure designs and inventions serve the new Golden Age?

The technology to live our best lives ALREADY EXISTS! Let’s take advantage of this knowledge and technology!

A true vision for energy independence is greater than the sum of all parts. Integrate many where and when they make since. Solar, waste-to-energy practices — incineration, gasification, and pyrolysis, coastal wave, hydroelectric, nuclear, clean coal, geothermal, or others already or under development may be applied to different applications that make since. Of course, safety in an imperative.
Energy cooperatives had the right idea. An energy cooperative is a nonprofit organization that provides energy to communities and is owned by its members. They are an alternative to investor-owned utilities, which are for-profit enterprises.

Revisit and release working patents owned by the government for inventions that have been confiscated and hidden due to the fact that they will affect the profit of huge corporations. Huge audit of the patent office to see if there are technologies that can be built and improved on that will bring energy cost and consumption down.

I wrote a law in 1990, and lobbied for 30 years in California,
Finally linked up with Sen. Scott Wiener, who introduced it into the Ca. Legislature and we got it passed in 2021.
The law says: “anyone can buy a lot in Ca. and build a 4-plex solar home with 100 solar panels on it. No matter what the zoning laws say.”
It is Ca. SB #9 & 10. I filled out your form in ENERGY, yesterday, but now have lost my account and can’t find it. Why?

I wrote a book, “The Earth Belongs to the People”, in 1968,

first published in SFSC Student Newspaper, Open Process", picked up by Liberation News Service and distributed to all college newspapers.
It was then stolen by “Steamshovel Press” in New Orleans, then stolen by an author in Canada,
then by “People’s Press” in SF, but I walked into their office, while it was on the drawing table and I exposed the theft to the editor,
so they added my name as the author, and it went to press in 1970.

I originally wrote the book in response to Paul Ehrlich’s book: “The Population Bomb”.
I argued “We don’t have too many people, we have too much poverty and too much capitalism.”

I drew a great graph of world history from “Hunters & Gathers” to the Industrial Revolution"

Yes, Decentralized Energy Cooperatives are the right idea.

We need to do what Germany did after Chernobyl, they followed the book
“Solar Manifesto,” Hermann Scheer
and built millions of 4-plex solar homes with 100 solar panels.
Germany became solar independent in 2021 and shut down all their nukes.
The only reason corporations build nuclear energy plants is to build atomic bombs.
We the People have the power to shut down all nukes in 3 years.

Heres how

EDUCATION:
I graduated from Hasting College of Law, SF, 1978.
So did my wife Christina Chen.
Unfortunately, she died in 2021 from Covid.

I have worked as a licensed private investigator for 30 years in the SF Hall of Justice doing criminal defense work.

Yes, I am still working.

Health; I never get sick. For 30 years I have not had a cold, flu, cancer or Covid. I get
a cancer checkup every other year. My plan is to live to age 111. That is a million hours. That will make me a millionaire, of the healthy type.

I do 100 pushup every day. I run a mile.

I am a US Navy Veteran, 1960-64. I was part of the 1962 Navy invasion of Cuba and the Cuban missile crisis.

I was then sent to be a guard for President John Kennedy.
I met him when I decided to spent an hour talking to our unit of 20 sailor, while we waited for the Shah of Iran near Washington, DC. President Kennedy took the time to each of us. I thanked Kennedy for signing the Cuban Peace treaty with Russia. A great day.

I am putting all this info on this in this reply, because I can’t get back into my account and so am using this alternative route to submitting my NOMINATION. Thank you.

Tesla’s towers are absurd. All energy radiated by them would go somewhere. They’re not like cell towers with directional antennas. Less than a millionth of it would be absorbed and put to use. And even if fuel is free, the stuff to use it isn’t. Do system engineering, not component engineering. Details and more in my book “Where Will We Get Our Energy?” A comprehensive end-to-end life-cycle system-engineering analysis of the entire energy landscape. Everything quantified. No vague handwaving. 350 bibliographic citations so readers can verify I didn’t just make up stuff.

The site needs down-votes, not just up-votes. “Pothole” Pete Buittegieg, really? Paul Kangas, really? His reaction to Paul Ehrlich’s “Population Bomb” was “we don’t have too many people. We have too much capitalism.”

I think it’s important to think of community when planning infrastructure. How can we build a country that brings people closer together. Even if geographically they are far apart. The faster and easier we can travel. The smaller the country becomes and closer we will be. We need high speed rail options, smart traffic control, and other high tech travel options.

Additionally better connections between cities and suburban areas. American cities both large and smaller should be highly accessible and easy to get to. Much of our division is between urban vs suburban/rural areas. Really focus on the building connections between these demographics.

We need energy infrastructure, oil refineries (that can refine light and sweat liquid gold), LNG export facilities (specifically on the east coast massive market in Southeast Asia), nuclear power plant buildout, R&D in smaller nuclear plants, electrical grid needs to double for the electricity needed for AI development, and research into high speed rail that can transport tonnage (not just people but weight as well).

We have not built a new oil refinery in decades. The old refineries can only refine crude oil not the oil that we get from fracking which is light and sweat. Energy independence is impossible if we cannot refine that oil at home

build on-site refineries would cut out the need to transport the oil. imo

We need more Nuclear energy, now more than ever if EVs are going to continue to be built. SMR’s are the way forward into the future. These large nuclear corporations are being bogged down by DEI policies that reward hiring by sex, gender, sexual orientation, and other non-performance metrics. This combined with the mass retirement of the boomers between 2019 and now has put us on a path to having another terrible nuclear accident. We need the corporations to stop and even reverse the policies before something bad happens.

Do you know about the natural energy sources used in Tartaria and pre-1825?

Hydroelectric Power needs to be classified as a renewable energy source. Infrastructure projects to build pumped storage plants where possible needs to be championed at the federal level.

The agining Infrastructure of the power grid and bulk electric system needs to be addressed.

as long as the proper frequency is applied, if there is such, which leaves the entire nature and the human body in healthy, thriving status;)

I don’t have anyone specific to recommend but I do want to ask that whomever the administration ends up choosing, can you please, PLEASE start seriously investing resources into bringing thorium based nuclear power into production. The U.S. actually built an experimental reactor at Oak Ridge in the 1960s.

I believe this is our best bet for meeting future energy needs as opposed to nuclear fusion, which is always been “just around the corner” for the past 50 years.
