The Future&amp;nbsp;Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan&amp;nbsp;oil pipeline is one thing to consider for the United States.&amp;nbsp; That oil pipeline can either turn to China or towards Gwadar, Pakistan in route to the United States.&amp;nbsp; That energy development strategy will also help Afghanistan develop.&amp;nbsp; The key to America's success in Afghanistan will depend on economic development outside of opium.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Energy&amp;nbsp;development within Afghanistan will&amp;nbsp;help the next American Administration in the War on Terror while dealing with Energy Issues.&amp;nbsp; Governor Schwarzenegger should focus on these new routes of oil development within his first year.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Governor Schwarzenegger has the credibility from the Right and the respect from the Left.&amp;nbsp; He is one of the key men who would truly help unite this nation.&amp;nbsp; For Senator Obama, he needs to look at the left of the nation's map for solutions to Energy.&amp;nbsp; This would definitely be a non-partisan&amp;nbsp;nominee.&amp;nbsp; Governor Schwarzenegger's openness to serve in a President Obama administration shows his commitment to public service beyond partisan lines.&amp;nbsp; This effort by Republicans like him must be admired.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Governor Schwarzenegger's next step to&amp;nbsp;a public office will may be in a new Presidential Cabinet, and it could be under a different political party.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description><pubDate>Sun, 13 Jul 2008 20:29:06 EST</pubDate><guid>http://www.trcb.com/news-and-society/energy/california-governor-arnold-schwarzenegger-on-president-obamas-administration-234.htm</guid><source url="http://www.trcb.com/rss/article/california-governor-arnold-schwarzenegger-on-president-obamas-administration-234.xml">TRCB.com</source><category>News and Society / Energy</category></item></channel></rss>
