I feel each of those issues are an important internal american issue (cept maybe the sleeping around one). However America's dependency on fossil fuel, and it's marriage with an unstable regional source has got to be curbed.

There are many alternatives out there from solar, to biodeisel. It is just a matter of marketing. For instance, greater than 50% or vehicles in germany run on biodeisel, why do you suppose that is, well they made that fuel cheaper to start with, and then they have nearly every car manufactured as a deisel engine.

If I were to choose between this and another issue, it would be the cost of healthcare.
