Pelosi isn't corrupt. She is a politician, and a damn smart one at that. She can't bring this without the political movement to demand it.
It is our job to create a movement to force her to do what I believe she probably thinks is right.

For the ten year time-line Gore is talking about electricity generation, not transportation. For electricity generation, we already have solar, wind and some water/damning. The technology already exists, and, frankly, the push would create new jobs in the economy.

Nicholas Kristof wrote a terrific column on this on July 6th. I think it is well known enough (and this comment appeared after his column), that the question should reference his column, which shows the broad importance of this idea. http://www.wecansolveit.org/

Fundamentally, we need to move towards public financing with free air-time for candidates. Can that happen incrementally? Additionally, as we look at this issue, I think the distinction between soft money and hard money has perhaps outlived its usefulness. We can't restrict just money to candidates but not parties and 527s.
