An Open Letter to the American People
August 23, 2008
This year's presidential election is among the most significant in our nation's history. The country urgently needs a visionary leader who can ensure the future of our traditional strengths in science and technology and who can harness those strengths to address many of our greatest problems: energy, disease, climate change, security, and economic competitiveness.
We are convinced that Senator Barack Obama is such a leader, and we urge you to join us in supporting him.

In the meantime, Palin has denied that human activities cause global warming and questioned scientists’ integrity on the subject!!
Sarah Palin puts polar bears on thin ice
Of course, a Palin/McCain administration (sic) would only continue the Bush White House’s long history of fake “science”. But even Bush these days admits global warming is real and manmade! Somehow, I doubt that a Palin/McCain administration is going to be a boon to scientific progress.
