President Obama Pushes for Lower Oil Imports

Hosted by

President Obama is trying to kick off a major effort at "energy security" with a speech to students at Georgetown University. He said he's the latest president since Richard Nixon to raise the danger of US dependence on oil. He cautioned against continuing "to rush to propose action when gas prices are high, and then hit the snooze button when they fall again."  Darren Samuelsohn is senior energy and environment reporter for Politico.
