Bobby Fontaine: Campaign 2010

In 1998, I drank well water polluted a chemical additive to gasoline called MTBE. It ruined my health and pushed me into the worst kind of corrupt Washington politics imaginable. Part of my strategy was to look for alternative solutions to MTBE. There’s another additive that doesn’t pollute groundwater, doesn’t cause loss of mileage, in fact increases it 20%, doesn’t pollute air, in fact reduces emissions from gasoline 70%, cools engines instead of overheats, the list goes on and one in this same pattern. It our problem all have solutions like this good additive while the government make the matter worse. Everywhere I looked I found easy and obvious answers to every problem our leaders tell us there isn’t anything they can do about,, the economy, climate change, even the war on terror. So I put together a campaign that explains them and ran for United States Congress in 2010. This is the content of that campaign, which is even more relevant today that it was back then.
