Prezidentai kartais sako metines kalbas.
Va, vakar prezidentas Obama pabraižė linijų, vektorių ir kitų krypčių. Viena citata:
With more research and incentives, we can break our dependence on oil with biofuels, and become the first country to have a million electric vehicles on the road by 2015. (Applause.)
We need to get behind this innovation. And to help pay for it, I’m asking Congress to eliminate the billions in taxpayer dollars we currently give to oil companies. (Applause.) I don’t know if -- I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but they’re doing just fine on their own. (Laughter.) So instead of subsidizing yesterday’s energy, let’s invest in tomorrow’s.
Now, clean energy breakthroughs will only translate into clean energy jobs if businesses know there will be a market for what they’re selling. So tonight, I challenge you to join me in setting a new goal: By 2035, 80 percent of America’s electricity will come from clean energy sources. (Applause.)
Kalba tokia gerokai panaši į priešrinkiminę ir gal kartais skamba kaip "mūsų kosminiai laivai raižys Didįjį teatrą".
Bet yra ir aiškūs tikslai, ir konkrečios datos. Tepadeda jiems Dievas.
